A 0.50 L0.50\,\text{L} aqueous solution is made by reacting 0.020 mol0.020\,\text{mol} of carbonic acid (H2CO3)(H_2CO_3) with 0.015 mol0.015\,\text{mol} of NaOHNaOH. Considering only the first dissociation step of carbonic acid (pKa(1)=6.35)\bigl(pK_a^{(1)} = 6.35\bigr), determine the pH of the solution.
