Question
Quinine is monobasic with Kb = 7.90 ×106.
Explanation / Answer
quinine reacts with HCl in 1:1 ratio So need 144.2e-3 /2 mol HCl 144.2e-3 mol HCl /2* ( 1L / 0.2 mol) = 0.3605 L added Final volume = 360.5 mL + 103.0 mL = 363.5 mL 144.2 e-3 /2 mol of protonaed quinine also formed B + H+ => BH+ (B is quinine and BH+ is protonated) [B] = [BH+] = 144.2e-3/2 mol / 0.363 L = 0.198349381 M BH+ + H2O B + H3O+ init 0.198 0.198 change -x x + x final 0.198 -x 0.198 + x + x Ka = Kw/Kb = 1e-14/Kb = 1e-14/7.9e-6 = 1.26582278e-9 Ka = [x][0.198+x]/(0.198 - x) = 1.266 e-9 Assume that 0.198 + x ~ 0.198 and 0.198 -x ~0.198 x = 1.266e-9 = [H3O+] pH = -log[H3O+] = 8.90 [H+] = 1e-7 - 9.87e-8 =Related Questions
