Answer

The most appropriate drawing for that situation is the number $(iv)$

Work Step by Step

At the equivalence point, the $HA$ was totally neutralized by the $NaOH$, and the solution is formed by: $Na^+$ ions, $H_2O$ molecules (both ommited by the drawing) and $A^-$ ions. $HA(aq) + NaOH(aq) -- \gt A^-(aq) + Na^+(aq) + H_2O(l)$ Therefore, the best representation is in the image number $(iv)$
