What volume of HCl was added if 20ml of 1M NaOH is titrated with 1M HCl to produce a pH=2

Because HCl is strong acid and NaOH is strong base . 20ml of 1M NaOH will neutralize 20mL of 1M HCl . The total volume at pH = 7 is 40mL . However , the final volume has pH=2 . That means there is more H+ than OH- .
For HCl :
CiVi = CfVf
Ci = 1M
Vi= x
Cf = 0.01 (because pH= 2)
Vf= 40 +x
(1M)(x)= (0.01M)(40+x)
x=0.4 ml
Then the volume of HCl needed to add = 20+0.4= 20.4 ml
