See the attached homework document! We are asked to determine the impact of adding the referenced compounds to water and then predicting pH. It is all explained in the attached.

Please help to understand the details of the dissociation and solubility product reactions in a step by step manner.

Intuitively, I would predict that the maleic acid reaction would result in a lower pH vs. aluminum sulfate given the same amount of reaction time ----- because of higher solubility and lower initial pKa value?
