Question
A researcher is preparing a reaction mixture to test the activity of a protein. They combine the required reaction components, which contained in a final 100ml reaction volume 200mM NaCl, unknown concentrations of acetic acid and acetate anions and a total [H^+] concentration of 64 nanomolar. Can you determine the pH of the solution. Provide your answer to once decimal place. Note: you may need to round the numbers to get the required answer.

You would have first calibrated a pH meter and then measured the pH of four different Acid Aqueous Solutions and examined the data for trends. You would have calculated the expected pH of each of the strong acid HCI solutions by assuming that the HCI is 100% ionized or dissociated when dissolved in water and thus Molarity HCI equals the Molarity H+. Using pH= -log H+ Molarity, the pH of a 1 X 10 to the -4 power M HCI solution (0.0001 M) is set up as pH= -log(0.0001) = 4. Use the log function of your calculator to get the answer.

You incubate this sample with the enzyme acetylcholinesterase to convert all of the acetylcholine to choline and acetic acid. The acetic acid dissociates to yield acetate and hydrogen ions. At the end of the incubation period, you measure the pH again and find that it has decreased to 5.52. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of nanomoles of acetylcholine in the original 16 mL sample.

- Click in the Stockroom. The stock solutions of NaCN and Na3PO4 are already approximately 0.1 M. Double-click each bottle to move them to the counter and return to the laboratory. With these solutions you can pour a small amount into a beaker that you have placed on the stir plate and place the pH probe in the solution. Record each pH in the data table. Drag each beaker to the red disposal bucket when you have finished. Were your predictions correct? If not, re-write the balanced net ionic equation below and explain the behavior of the salt in water.

- You have a 18 mL sample of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) with an unknown concentration and a pH of 7.82. You incubate this sample with the enzyme acetylcholinesterase to convert all of the acetylcholine to choline and acetic acid. The acetic acid dissociates to yield acetate and hydrogen ions. At the end of the incubation period, you measure the pH again and find that it has decreased to 5.66. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of nanomoles of acetylcholine in the original 18 mL sample. Tip: your answer should have two significant digits! Only the mantissa (the digits to the right of the decimal) are significant when you raise a decimal number to a power.
