Trimethylamine N(CH3)3 , is responsible for the "fishy" smell in fish. This compound is found in small amounts in fresh water fish (0-5 mg/kg ) and in dead fish is produced in higher amounts by bacteria capable of reducing trimethylamine oxide, compound involved in the regulation of osmotic pressure in fish. N(CH3)3 is a weak base for which Kp is 6.3x105. Calculate the pH of a solution made by dissolving 0.070 mol of trimethylamine in water and diluting to 800.0 ml.
