I can't seem to get an equation for this reaction.Potassium Biphthlate + Sodium Hydroxide give me what? Both are dissolved in water. Need to figure out the equation to standardize the sodium hydroxide.

NaOH + KHC8H4O4 -->All are aqueous.

EDIT: read the sticky right after posting, sorry will post in the other section delete pls.
