3. Suppose that the KHP is not completely dry. Will the reported molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution be higher, lower, or unaffected? Explain.

4. In preparing the buret for titration the final rinse is with the NaOH titrant rather than with distilled water. Explain.

5. The procedure suggests the addition of only 2 drops of phenolphthalein. What will be the effect to the analysis if larger amount of phenolphthalein is added?
