- Some acids are polyprotic, meaning that they have two or more acidic protons in their formula. Phosphoric acid is an example of a triprotic acid, meaning that it has three acidic protons. The third equivalence point would be the volume of base required to neutralize all three-- the first, second, and third protons of the acid's formula. The calculation for the following problem will require the correct stoichiometry for this acid-base neutralization reaction to be used. Hint: Be careful about your molar ratio.
