Chapter 19, Problem 19.38P
8 In Chapter 22, we will discuss a class of compounds called amino acids, so named because they contain both an amino group and a carboxyl group. Following is a structural formula for the amino
acid alanine.
What would you expect to be the major form of alanine present in aqueous solution (a) at pH 2.0, (b) at pH 5—6, and (c) at pH 11.0? Explain.

- The antimalaria properties of quinine (C20H24N202) saved thousands of lives during construction of the Panama Canal. This substance is a classic example of the medicinal wealth that tropical forests hold. Both N atoms are basic, and the N of the amine group is far more basic (pKb=4.94) than the N within the aromatic ring system (pKb=10.54). A saturated solution of quinine in water is only 4.55x10-3M.

- Part A The chemical 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione, better known as luminol, is used by forensic scientists in analyzing crime scenes for the presence of washed-away blood. Luminol is so sensitive that it can detect blood that has been diluted 10,000 times. A basic solution of luminol is often sprayed onto surfaces that are suspected of containing minute amounts of blood. The forensic technician at a crime scene has just prepared a luminol stock solution by adding 15.0 g of luminol into a total volume of 75.0 mL of H2O. What is the molarity of the stock solution of luminol? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Luminol has a molecular weight of 177 g/mol. • View Available Hint(s) HẢ molarity of luminol solution = Value Units Submit Part B Before investigating the scene, the technician must dilute the luminol solution to a concentration of 6.00x10-2 M.
