What is Monoprotic vs Polyprotic Acids Explained about?

A polyprotic acid is capable of donating two or more protons to acceptor molecules. Successive ionization constants for polyprotic acids usually decrease by a factor of 104 to 106. This causes each step in the ionization of a polyprotic acid to occur to a much lesser extent than the previous step. The exact calculation of simultaneous equilibria for polyprotic acids can be complex, but simplifies if the original concentration is not too small and the ionization constants differ by more than a factor of 100.
