HIn(aq) = In (aq) + H* (aq) The protonated form of the indicator, HIn, has a molar absorptivity of 2777 M-1.cm-1 and the deprotonated form, In-, has a molar absorptivity of 19024 M-1.cm-1 at 440 nm.

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.)

Potassium hydrogen phthalate, known as KHP (molar mass = 204.22 g/mol), can be obtained in high purity and is used to determine the concentration of solutions of strong bases by the reaction HP(aq)+OH(aq)H2O(l)+P2(aq) If a typical titration experiment begins with approximately 0.5 g KHP and has a final volume of about 100 mL, what is an appropriate indicator to use? The pKa for HP is 5.51.

A solution may contain any or all of the following cations: Ag+, Pb2+, Ba2+, Ni2+ in an UNKNOWN mixture. HCl is added to the solution and a precipitate forms. That precipitate is removed and NH3 (aq) is added to the supernatant until the solution is basic, no solid forms. After making the supernatant basic, K2CrO4 is then added and a precipitate forms. What cations (Ag+, Pb2+, Ba2+, Ni2+)are present in this unknown sample (This is chemistry and not a writing question)
The hydrogen tartrate anion itself is a weak acid and slightly dissociates in aqueous solution. Htar (aq) H* (aq) + Tar²-(aq) However, HTar is a strong enough acid that it can be titrated with a strong base like sodium hydroxide and this neutralization reaction proceeds to completion. Thus we can analyze a solution for HTar by titration with a standard strong base solution such as aqueous NaOH.
