Table 13-4 lists the stepwise Ka values for some polyprotic acids. What is the difference between a monoprotic acid, a diprotic acid, and a triprotic acid? Most polyprotic acids are weak acids; the major exception is H2SO4. To solve for the pH of a solution of H2SO4, you must generally solve a strong acid problem as well as a weak acid problem. Explain. Write out the reactions that refer to Ka1 and Ka2 for H2SO4. For H3PO4, Ka1 = 7.5 103, Ka2 = 6.2 108, and Ka3= 4.8 1013. Write out the reactions that refer to the Ka1, Ka2and Ka3equilibrium constants. What are the three acids in a solution of H3PO4? Which acid is strongest? What are the three conjugate bases in a solution of H3PO4? Which conjugate base is strongest? Summarize the strategy for calculating the pH of a polyprotic acid in water.
Write the acid ionization constant expression for the ionization of each of the following monoprotic acids. a. HCN (hydrocyanic acid) b. HC6H7O6 (ascorbic acid)
Estimate the pH of a solution in which bromcresol green is blue and thymol blue is yellow. (See Fig. 14-8.)
Ionization of the first proton from H2SO4 is complete (H2SO4 is a strong acid); the acid-ionization constant for the second proton is 1.1 102. a What would be the approximate hydronium-ion concentration in 0.100 M H2SO4 if ionization of the second proton were ignored? b The ionization of the second proton must be considered for a more exact answer, however. Calculate the hydronium-ion concentration in 0.100 M H2SO4, accounting for the ionization of both protons.
