Question

State whether each of the following statements is true or
false. Justify your answer in each case.
(a) Sulfuric acid is a monoprotic acid.

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone in this example we need to determine whether oxalic acid is a mono product acid and we need to explain why. So what we should recall is that a mono product acid means that our acid only has one ayan izabal proton. We would recall that protons are H plus or hydrogen atoms. Now if we have more than one visible proton, that would be considered a die protic acid. So that is where we have to ionized herbal protons. So we want to recall our formula for oxalic acid. We should recall that it has the formula H. two C 204. So this is our oxalic acid. And as we can see from our formula, we have to ionized herbal protons because we have two Hs or two hydrogen atoms. And so we would say that therefore oxalic acid is a or we can say it's not is not a mono protic acid because it has two invisible protons. And so this would be our final answer to complete this example. So I hope that everything I explained was clear. If you have any questions, please leave them down below. And I will see everyone in the next practice video
