Re: Acids and Bases
No we don't. Dr. Lavelle said that polyprotic acids required multiple steps for each time the acid donates a proton.

Re: Acids and Bases
It might be good to know what polyprotic acids are for the future but I don't think they are something to worry about for this test.

Re: Acids and Bases
I wouldn't stress too much about this on the test but we will probably have to know it at some point

Re: Acids and Bases
But what about the homework questions from 6E (1 and 3)?? Those dealt with polyprotic acids. If someone could explain them to me, that'd be really helpful!

Re: Acids and Bases
I believe no, but the idea of a polyprotic acid is that it can donate more than one hydrogen atom in the equilibrium reaction (like 2+, 3+, etc.) and therefore will have different ionization levels and multiple Ka values.,
