Potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) concentrations can be determined through titrating samples of KHP (a monoprotic acid) with bases such as NaOH in the presence of an indicator such as phenolphthalein. The indicator is colorless in an acidic solution and turns pink in an alkaline solution. Thus, we can establish an equilibrium for the phenolphthalein with the following reaction. HIn + H,0 = In + H,0* If the Hin species is "acid color" or colorless for the phenolphthalein, and the In species is "base color" or pink for this particular indicator, what color will appear in a flask in which a 0.2993 gram sample of KHP is completely neutralized with an excess of NaOH?

You have a 18 mL sample of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) with an unknown concentration and a pH of 8.35. 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 6.03. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of nanomoles of acetylcholine in the original 18 mL sample.
