20 mL of calcium hydroxide was consumed when it was reacted with 10 mL of unknown solution of H2SO4. Also 20 mL standard solution of 0.5 M HCl containing 2 drops of phenolphthalein was titrated with calcium hydroxide, the mixture showed pink colour when burette displayed the value of 35.5 mL whereas the burette showed 25.5 mL initially. The concentration of H2SO4 is _______M. (Nearest integer)
