    Which one is true for any diprotic acid\[{{\operatorname{H}}_{2}}X\]?

    A) \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{2}}}}>{{K}_{{{a}_{1}}}}\]                 

    B) \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{1}}}}>{{K}_{{{a}_{2}}}}\]

    C) \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{2}}}}>\frac{1}{{{K}_{{{a}_{1}}}}}\]              

    D) \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{2}}}}={{K}_{{{a}_{1}}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{1}}}}>{{K}_{{{a}_{2}}}}\] For diprotic acid Ka is dissociation contents of acid. \[{{\operatorname{K}}_{{{a}_{1}}}}>{{K}_{{{a}_{2}}}}\] Because it is more difficult to remove a positively charged proton from negative ion due to electrostatic forces. Greater the charge on negative ion, more difficult it becomes to remove a proton.
