If you needed to perform a reaction in a controlled pH environment that was fairly basic, you might choose to use the ammonium and ammonia buffer system. How many grams of solid ammonium chloride would you have to add to 2.250 liters of 0.180M NH3 to obtain a buffered solution of pH = 9.20? (Kp of NH3 = 1.8 x 105)

The simplest amino acid is glycine, H2NCH2CO2H. The common feature of amino acids is that they contain the functional groups: an amine group, -NH2, and a carboxylic acid group, -CO2H. An amino acid can function as either an acid or a base. For glycine, the acid strength of the carboxyl group is about the same as that of acetic acid. CH3CO2H, and the base strength of the amino group is slightly greater than that of ammonia, NH3. (a) Write the Lewis structures of the ions that form when glycine is dissolved in 1 M HCl and in 1 M KOH. (b) Write the Lewis structure of glycine when this amino acid is dissolved in water. (Hint: Consider the relative base strengths of the -NH2 and -CO2- groups.)
