Plot the Titration Curve for Bicine and Calculate How to Prepare a pH 7.5 Bicine Buffer Solution Bicine (N, N—bis (2-hydroxyethyl) glycine) is another commonly used buffer in biochemistry labs. The structure of Bicine in its fully protonated form is shown here:
- Draw the titration curve for Bicine. assuming the pA'a for its free COOH group is 2.3 and the pAa for its tertiary amino group is 8.3.
- Draw the structure of the fully deprotonated form (completely dissociated form) of bicine.
- You have available a U.l Msolution of Bicine at its isoelectric point (pH|)T 0.1 M solutions of HCI and NaOH. and ample distilled water. Describe the preparation of 1 L of 0.U4 M Bicine buffer. pH 7.5.
- What is the concentration of the fully protonated form of Bicine in your final buffer solution?
