Quinine (
C20 H24 N2 O2) is the most important alkaloid
derived from cinchona bark. It is used as an
antimalarial drug. For quinine,
pK, = 5.1 and
pK, = 9.7 (
pKp = – log Kp). Only 1 g quinine will dissolve in
1920.0 mL of solution. Calculate the pH of a
saturated aqueous solution of quinine. Consider
only the reaction
