In an experiment to determine the amount of aspirin in a tablet, one of the bottles of NaOH used was accidentally left open for 24 hours, which lead to it reacting with carbon dioxide. What will be the effect on the calculated amount of aspirin compared to the actual amount in the tablet and the concentration of the NaOH solution? Calculated amount increases since NaOH concentration will be lower than original. Calculated amount increases since NaOH concentration will be higher than original. O Calculated amount decreases since NaOH concentration will be lower than original. O Calculated amount decreases since NaOH concentration will be higher than original.
