Dissociation degree calculation from Ka1 Ka2 and H+
« on: September 02, 2014, 05:41:31 PM »
Hello
My task is to express dissociation degree for fully dissociated form of diprotoic acid in general as a function of Ka1 Ka2 and [H+].

I know that
Ka1=[H+]*[HA-]/[H2A]
Ka2=[H+]*[A2-]/[HA-]
[HA-]+[A2-]=[H+]

diss degree=[A2-]/(HA-]+[H2A]+[A2-])

But I have no idea how to exchange all this things with only Ka1 Ka2 and [H+]
Can someone help me with that ?
