Question
Chapter 10.2, Problem 5QQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Among the given options, the one that describes a substance that function as an amphiprotic substance has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Amphiprotic Substance:
It is a substance that can either accept a proton or lose a proton and hence can function as either a Bronsted–Lowry base or a Bronsted–Lowry acid.
The requirement of a substance to be a amphiprotic substance is the presence of both a lone pair of electrons and a hydrogen atom. The most common example of amphiprotic substance is water.

oxalic acis is a diprotic acid with two carboxylic acid functional groups (-COOH). Its pKa1 is 1.25, while its pKa2 is 4.14. What is the concentration of its dianion, (C2O4)2- in a 3.0 M solution of oxalic acid?
Answer - 7.2 x 10^-5 M
Please explain why?
True or False w/ explanation
1. Salts when dissolved in water tend to dissociate partially into ions.
2. Salt of a weak acid and a weak base, if the pka is equal to the pkb the pH of the solution is acidic.
3. If the pka of a weak acid is higher than the pkb of a weak base the solution is acidic.
4. If the pka of a weak acid is lower than the pkb of a weak base the solution is basic.
5. In a buffer solution, if the concentration of the acid and the salt is the same the pH is higher than the pka.
6. Ammonium chloride is an example of a salt of a weak acid and a strong base.
Choices:
Bronsted- Lowry
