a) Some sodium oxalate was spilled after it had been weighed out on the analytical balance.

b) Prior to its use, the pipet has not been rinsed with the standard sodium oxalate solution.

c) The Erlenmeyer flask was rinsed with the sodium oxalate instead of deionized water before the 25.00 mL solution was measured into it.
