Solution

The correct option is A 2x
i. With phenolphthalein indicator, NaHCO3 does not react with HCl whereas with Na2CO3 is 50% reaction.
VHCl=x mL (Half titre value of Na2CO3)
ii. With methyl orange indicator, NaHCO3 reacts completely with HCl and with Na2CO3 is 100% reaction.
But y mL of HCl is added after Na2CO3 has reacted upto NaHCO3 i.e., half titre value of Na2CO3.
VHCl=Full litre value of NaHCO3+ Half titre value of Na2CO3
y mL=x+x mL
Volume of HCl required for complete reaction of Na2CO3=x mL+x mL=2x mL
