Answer:

Ka2 values should be used in obtaining pKa2 in the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation

Explanation:

During first dissociation from H3PO4 to H2PO4-, ka1 will be used, and from H2PO4-to HPO4-, ka2 values will be used, hence a buffer solution containing H2PO4-and HPO4-will use ka2 in obtaining pKa2 in the Henderson–Hasselbalch equation.
