For diprotic selenous acid (H_(2)SeO_(3)) equilibrium constants K_(a)1 and K_(a)2 are 3.0xx10^(-3) and 5.0xx10^(-8) respectively. [OH – ] of 0.30 M solution of selenous acid is :

A saturated solution of H_2S in water has concetration of approximately 0.10 M. What is the pH of this soluton and equilibrium concentrations of H_2S,HS^(-) and S^(2-) ? Hydrogen sulphide is a diprotic acid and its dissociation constants are K_(a_1)=9.1xx10^(-8) ,K_(a_2)=1.3xx10^(-3) "mol L"^(-1) respectively.

Assertion : Acids that have more than one proton that can be donated to base are called polyrotic acids. Reason : For all diprotic acids, the equilibrium constant K_(a_(2)) for the second stage of ionisation is smaller than the equilibrium constant, K_(a_(1)) , for the first stage of ionisation.
