Solution:

For 20 mL of $ 0.5\text{ }N\text{ }HCl $ $ {{N}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}=0.5\times 20=10 $ For 35 mL of $ 0.1\text{ }NaOH $ $ {{N}_{2}}{{V}_{2}}=0.1\times 35=3.5 $ $ \because $ $ {{N}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}>{{N}_{2}}{{V}_{2}} $ $ \therefore $ Solution will be acidic in nature. Due to acidic nature of solution, the colour of phenolphthatein becomes pink.
