Write down the equations in terms of the acid
dissociation constants and [H+] for the highest
alpha value for each of the following :
(i) Tartrate
(ii) Acetate
(iii) Phosphate
(iv) Nitrilo acetic acid
(v) EDTA


I found a question like the above. I couldn't understand the question. What are they asking for and what do they mean by alpha value??

Can anyone help please....

Alpha is the degree of dissociation:

That means for higher alpha value dissociation constant also will be higher. Is it true?
