This is from p block chapter!! why is Ka2 of H2SO4 less than Ka1in water??
|
Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.

quite simple..... u know abt conjugate acid and bases, right?? u also know that all try to reach stability .., right?/ same here.... H2SO4 is a quite strong acid, so after losing one H+ , it becomes HSO4- and it has more tendency to get one H+ rather than losing it... on the other hand , water is aphoteric substance weak in both, OH- is a very strong base, so water has a tendency to form it. hence, its ka1 is more. i hope it is clear??

H2SO4 CAN IONISE IN 2 STEPS. so during the ionisation, why is Ka2 of H2SO4 less than Ka1? ka- dissociation constant

Ka1 of H2SO4 is higher and its a very strong acid. So theres already a very high conc. of H+ ions. So now the further dissociation of the HSO4- is depressed due to common-ion effect. So the second dissociation is very small, and reaches equilibrium very fast. Hence Ka2 is very small, implying HSO4- is a very weak acid.
