Description

Application
Standardization of NaOH solutions in volumetric analysis. Acid-base titration experiments in analytical chemistry. Calibration and quality control in chemical laboratories. Preparation of buffer solutions and pH-related studies.

Purpose
KHP is mainly used as a primary standard substance to accurately determine the concentration of bases during titration experiments.

General Description
Potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) is a white solid water-soluble acidic salt. It is highly pure stable non-hygroscopic and has a known molecular weight making it suitable as a primary standard in analytical chemistry.
