Naoh Synthesis Lab Report

The first step was to prepare 400 mL of an 0.1 M solution of NaOH. This was done by diluting from the 6 M solution that was provided. Next, 0.715g of KHP was weighed using the glazed paper and the triple beam balance. The KHP was then transferred to the 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask. Using a graduated cylinder, 50 mL of deionized water was measured and added to the flask. The KHP was dissolved in the water, and few drops of phenolphthalein were added. Moreover, the burette was rinsed with deionized water, then with NaOH solution. Then, it was filled with 50 mL NaOH. The KHP solution was titrated to the endpoint using NaOH. The results were recorder, and the pH was measured using the pH meter. Finally, this process was repeated two more times, and
