0.3456 g of a solid acid is dissolved in 50 mL of water in a flask  and a few drops of phenolphthalein are added to the solution.  A buret containing 0.2545 M NaOH is prepared with an initial volume of 10.50 mL.  The acid is accidentally titrated with the base beyond the end point, so 1.52 mL of 0.187 M HCl are added to the flask. The titration with the base is continued to a final volume reading of  40.55 mL.  Calculate the molar mass of the solid acid.
