    H₂PO₄⁻ + H⁺ + Cl⁻ - -> H₃PO₄ + Cl⁻

    H₂PO₄⁻ + K⁺ + OH⁻ - -> HPO₄⁻² + K⁺ + H₂O

    Explanation:

    An amphiprotic ion is an ion that can work as an acid or as a base. So, when it works like an acid, it loses one proton (H+), and when it works as a base, it gains one proton.

    HCl is an acid, so the ion works as a base. The acid dissociates and forms H⁺ and Cl⁻:

    H₂PO₄⁻ + H⁺ + Cl⁻ - -> H₃PO₄ + Cl⁻

    KOH is a base, so the ion works as an acid. The base dissociates and forms K⁺ and OH⁻:

    H₂PO₄⁻ + K⁺ + OH⁻ - -> HPO₄⁻² + K⁺ + H₂O
