Interpretation:
A sample contains 20.0 mL volume of
Polyprotic acid:
Polyprotic acid is an acid, which can donate minimum two or more than two protons from per molecule to an aqueous solution. Diprotic and triprotic acids are commonly available polyprotic acids, it can able to donate or loss two and three protons, respectively. The polyprotic acid shows more than one equivalence points in their titratin curves; it depends on the number of protons they possess.

Chemical Principles: The Quest for Insight
- The simplest amino acid is glycine, H2NCH2CO2H. The common feature of amino acids is that they contain the functional groups: an amine group, -NH2, and a carboxylic acid group, -CO2H. An amino acid can function as either an acid or a base. For glycine, the acid strength of the carboxyl group is about the same as that of acetic acid. CH3CO2H, and the base strength of the amino group is slightly greater than that of ammonia, NH3. (a) Write the Lewis structures of the ions that form when glycine is dissolved in 1 M HCl and in 1 M KOH. (b) Write the Lewis structure of glycine when this amino acid is dissolved in water. (Hint: Consider the relative base strengths of the -NH2 and -CO2- groups.)arrow_forwardPhosphate ions are abundant in cells, both as the ions themselves and as important substituents on organic molecules. Most importantly, the pKa for the H2PO4 ion is 7.20, which is very close to the normal pH in the body. H2PO4(aq) + H2O() H3O+(aq) + HPO42(aq) 1.
