A water sample is alkaline to both phenolphthalein and
methyl orange. 200ml of water sample on titration with N/25 HCl required 5ml of the acid to phenolphthalein end point. When a few drops of methyl orange are added to the same solution and titration was further continued the yellow colour of the solution just turned pink after the addition of another 12ml of acid. Calculate the type and extent of alkalinity present in the water sample
