Question: The equations below show the ionization reactions and the corresponding Ka values for the two ionizations of sulfurous acid, H2SO3. H2SO3(aq)+H2O(l)????H3O+(aq)+HSO?3(aq) Ka1=0.017 HSO?3(aq)+H2O(l)????H3O+(aq)+SO2?3(aq) Ka2=6.410?8 Find

The equations below show the ionization reactions and the corresponding Ka values for the two ionizations of sulfurous acid, H2SO3.

H2SO3(aq)+H2O(l)????H3O+(aq)+HSO?3(aq) Ka1=0.017

HSO?3(aq)+H2O(l)????H3O+(aq)+SO2?3(aq) Ka2=6.4×10?8

Find the concentration of HSO?3 in a 0.041 M solution of sulfurous acid. Report your answer with the correct number of significant figures.
