Refer to the explanation

Explanation:

First, find the moles of NaOH using the formula of n=cv
number of moles = volume1000concentration

moles = 4010000.2

moles = 0.008

Then here is the balanced equation of the neutralisation reaction while having the unknown dibasic acid.

H2X+2NaOH2H2O+Na2X

Mole ratio is 1:2 so you divide the moles of the NaOH by 2.

0.0082 =0.004

Then we use the formula moles = massArorMr

Mr=massm

0.20.004 = 50

Relative molecular mass of acid A is 50
