Standardizing a solution of sodium hydroxide for our acid-base titration experiment means O a. to compare the results of your titration with those of other laboratories, or other groups performing the same titration. O b. to prepare the standard solution directly from a solid and not from a solution. C. to determine, by titration, the concentration of the basic solution using a known quantity of a primary standard acid. O d. to prepare a series of standard solutions and determine the average concentration.

Potassium hydrogen phthalate is a solid, monoprotic acid frequently used in the laboratory as a primary standard. It has the formula KHC8H4O4. This is often written in the short-hand notation as KHP. If 25.0mL of a potassium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 2.26g of KHP, what is the molarity of the potassium hydroxide solution? Potassium hydrogen phthalate sometimes called potassium biphthalate, as shown on this bottle is an acid that is convenient to store and use because it is a solid.
