- A weak acid has a pKa of 6.44. If the pH of the solution is 7.22, what percentage of the acid is dissociated?arrow_forwardFor an acid with a pKa of 5.00, what is the pKb of its conjugate base?arrow_forward4. The pKa of a particular weak acid is 4.81. What is the pH of the weak acid solution when exactly half of the acid is neutralized? pH =arrow_forward
- Chemistry How do I calculate the %ionisation at pH of a drug (compound code;UQPC 22-606-Q) the “Q” compounds do not have pKa values; physiological pH is 7.0; the pH of the small intestine ranges from pH 5 to pH 8 Formula:C15H23NO2.arrow_forwardFor an acid HA with a pKa of 5.2, what is the ratio of the concentration of the conjugate base to that of the acid at pH 7.2.arrow_forwardA student is given an antacid tablet that weighs 5.9200 g. The tablet is crushed and 4.8270 g of the antacid is added to 200. mL of simulated stomach acid. It is allowed to react and then filtered. It is found that 25.00 mL of this partially neutralized stomach acid required 11.7 mL of a NaOH solution to titrate it to a methyl red end point. It takes 27.8 mL of this NaOH solution to neutralize 25.00 mL of the original stomach acid. How much of the stomach acid (in mL) is neutralized by the 4.8270 g crushed sample of the tablet?arrow_forward
- All amino acids have at least two functional groups with acidic or basic properties. In alanine, the carboxylic acid group has Ka = 4.5 103 and the amino group has Kb = 7.4 105. Three ions of alanine are possible when alanine is dissolved in water. Which of these ions would predominate in a solution with [H+] = 1.0 M? In a solution with [OH] = 1.0 M?arrow_forwardA student is given an antacid tablet that weighs 5.9320 g. The tablet is crushed and 4.9780 g of the antacid is added to 200. mL of simulated stomach acid. It is allowed to react and then filtered. It is found that 25.00 mL of this partially neutralized stomach acid required 13.5 mL of a NaOH solution to titrate it to a methyl red end point. It takes 29.0 mL of this NaOH solution to neutralize 25.00 mL of the original stomach acid. How much of the stomach acid (in mL) has been neutralized in the 25.00 mL sample that was titrated?arrow_forwardDraw the predominant form for glutamate in a solution with the following pH: a. 0 b. 3 c. 6 d. 11arrow_forward
- What is the polyprotic base with a pkB of 3.95 and 4.25?arrow_forward1. What is the pH of a 0.20 M solution of sodium acetate? The Ka for acetic acid is 1.8 x 10⁻⁵? 2. What is the pH of a 0.20 M solution of jaspersamine? The pKb value for jaspersamine 4.40.arrow_forwardThe dissociation of lactic acid to lactate is shown in the reaction. Lactic acid has a pKa of 3.86. A solution containing a mixture of lactic acid and lactate was found to have a pH of 5.10. Calculate the ratio of the lactic acid concentration to the lactate concentration in this solution.arrow_forward
