Potassium acid phthalate is a common primary standard used to standardize bases. Obviously, it would depend upon how much NaCl was present, but the end result will be to reduce the amount of available H+ for the mass of KHP-NaCl mixture. That would cause you to understate the concentration of the base.

What should you do if some HCl drips down the outside of your graduated cylinder while you are filling the cylinder?

I suppose it depends upon the molarity (concentration) of the HCl. Ask your teacher or lab instructor for sure, but I would immediately place the graduated cylinder with the acid into a storage vessel of some kind, wash my hands thoroughly, then obtain new HCl and cylinder and start over. Do NOT just dump the HCl down the drain, unless it's really dilute. Again, ask your instructor for clarification.


What you should do if a concentrated acid falls on your body?

If concentrated acid falls on your body, immediately rinse the affected area with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes to dilute the acid and flush it away. Remove any contaminated clothing while rinsing. Seek medical attention promptly, as acid burns can be serious and may require additional treatment.


Why should you never perform experiments not approved by lab instructor?

It is possible that mixing the wrong chemicals could result in fire or explosion, but it is much more likely that you could produce an unplanned release of toxic gasses or chemicals. This could cause illness, injury or death.
