Using oxalic acid dihydrate as a primary standard just seems really odd to me. I'd expect a primary standard to be oven dried. I just seems weird that a hydrate would be used.

Granted I saw numerous references to using oxalic acid dihydrate on the web to standardize NaOH. I assume that for high school and freshman labs that it is "good enough." Using student grade burettes and open air pan balances would greatly limit the possible precision.

Also I'd guess that "good enough purity" oxalic acid dihydrate can be purchased much more cheaply than potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) which would be my choice.

The analytical method as I remember from nearly 50 years ago...

Prepare a concentrated stock solution (4 molar?) of NaOH using distilled water. That went in a jug with a spout just above the bottom. It was capped with a dedicator tube filled with NaOH to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere. It sat for a couple of days to allow sodium carbonate to settle out. (NaOH will have some carbonate.)

Dried KHP on oven at 120 C for four hours and then put that in a desiccator to cool.

Boiled distilled water to remove dissolved $\ce{CO2}$ and stoppered that to cool.

Using the cooled boiled distilled water made an approximately 0.1 molar solution of NaOH by diluting the concentrated stock solution.

Using an analytical weighed out 3 samples of KHP to nearest 0.0001 g into flasks and carefully dissolved them in the cooled boiled distilled water with swirling to minimize introducing bubbles into the solution.

Then using NaOH as the titrant, phenolphthalein was used as the indicator. Again careful to swirl solution, not shake, to prevent bubbles.

Using class 1 50 ml burette which was marked to 0.1 mls but read to 0.01 ml.
