pH of Solutions

Question

Describe which of these acids would be the strongest based on the following data:

Chemical Formula: Name: Kc1: Kc2:

H2C3H2O4 Malonic Acid 1.5×10−3 2.0×10−6

H2C2O4 Oxalic Acid 5.4×10−2 5.3×10−5

H2SO3 Sulfurous Acid 1.3×10−2 6.2×10−8

Answer 1

I can’t follow the formatting in your question so can’t tell which K goes with which acid. To answer the question, find the acid with the lowest K1 and that will be the strongest acid.
