A sample of anhydrous Na2CO3 (FM = 105.989) is suspected to be contaminated with either NaHCO3 (FM = 84.007) or NaOH (FM = 39.997) To verify the suspicion, a 0.7483 g sample was dissolved to prepare a 50.00 mL solution, and a 10.00 mL aliquot was taken to prepare a 100 mL solution, where 25.00 mL was analyzed using single flask method. If the sample requires 27.50 mL of standard 0.0125 N HCl to reach the phenolphthalein endpoint and another 28.40 mL to reach the bromcresol green endpoint, calculate the percentage composition (in %w/w) of all the basic components in the sample.
