Someone had questions about exp 5, "Points to Consider" and the report.
Exp 1 had Points to Consider but they still weren't sure what to do with 
these.

The points to consider are often posed as questions.  They are not to be
treated as questions per say which you give an answer to.  They are to
get you to think about things you should be addressing/answering in the
Discussion section.  Thinking about some of these will help with your
discussion of your results and possible sources of error.  They are not
all inclusive, meaning there are other things you still may have to 
address.
You certainly should always include your important results in the 
Discussion
section and discuss whether they are correct (which you don't always know)
or at least reasonable (indicate what this is based on, lecture, the 
textbook, the
manual, etc.).

You are suppose include a sample calc. treating the acid as monoprotic
(the MW for the report form and data entry is based on this), diprotic
and triprotic (page 32 in the manual - back of report form in the manual).
This can be done here or with your other sample calculations.
