Half Equivalence point is the point at which half of the acid has been neutralized

The initial moles of  

 
  

At one-half the equivalence point, the amount of added base is exactly one-half the initial amount of acid.The base converts exactly half of the   into  resulting in equal amounts of the weak acid and its conjugate base. The pH is therefore equal to pKa.

 

Since here  

Hence, (since )
