. How is the strength of an acid related to the fact that a competition for protons exists in aqueous solution between water molecules and the anion of the acid?
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.)
The table below contains data about common indicators and the pH range at which they are effective. Indicator pH range phenolphthalein 8.00 – 10.00 methyl orange 3.00 – 5.00 litmus 6.00 – 8.00 c. Use the pH curve, and the information show in the table above, to select the most appropriate indicator to show the end-point of this titration. State the colour change that would be observed.

10.0 cm³ of a solution of a strong acid with a pH of 3 is added to a volumetric flask and the total volume is made up to 1.00 dm³ by adding distilled water. The resulting solution is then thoroughly mixed. What is the pH of the diluted solution?
The pH factor is a measure of the acidity and alkalinity of water. A reading of 7.0 is neutral; values in excess of 7.0 indicate alkalinity; those below 7.0 imply acidity. In one study, it is mentioned that the best chance of catching bass occurs when the pH of the water is in the range 7.5 to 7.9. Suppose your suspect that acid rain is lowering the pH of your favourite fishing spot and you wish to determine whether the pH is less than 7.5. You obtained 10 samples and got the following data: 7.3, 7.4, 7.2, 7.0, 7.5,7.4,7.3,7.3,7.2 and 7.1. Use 0.05 alpha. a. State the alternative and null hypothesis. b. Is the pH of the water samples less than 7.5?
A buffer is made by mixing 5.0 mL of 3.0 M NH,(aq) with 10 mL of 1.44 M NH Cl(aq).
