Quinine (C20 H24 N2O2) is the most important alkaloid derived from cinchona bark. It is used as an antimalarial drug. For quinine, pKb, = 5.1 and pK, = 9.7 (pK, = - log Kp). Only 1 g quinine will dissolve in 1930.0 mL of solution.Calculate the pH of a saturated aqueous solution of quinine. Consider only the reactionQ+ H20 = QH+ + OH°described by pK,, where Q = quinine.pH =

Given : pKb1 = 5.1 pKb2 = 9.7 Mass of quinine = 1 gm Volume of solution = 1930 ml
