Pure potassium hydrogen phthalate is used for the standardization of the sodium hydroxide solution. Suppose that the potassium hydrogen phthalate is not completely dry. Will the reported molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution be too high, too low, or unaffected because of the moistness of the potassium hydrogen phthalate? Explain.
