Calculate the percentage of the principal basic component


A 0.5950-g sample containing one or more of the species (mol. wt.) NaOH (40.00), Na2CO3 (106.0), NaHCO3 (84.01) plus inert ingredients is dissolved in water and titrated with 0.1000 M HCl, requiring 14.11 mL HCl to reach the phenolphthalein end point and 39.74 mL (total) to reach the bromcresol green end point. Calculate the percentage of the principal basic component in the sample (That is, the component that is present in the largest percentage. You will need to determine which species are present and calculate the mass percent for each of them in the sample. Then report the one that is present in the largest percentage).
