Quinine (C20H24N2O2) is the most important alkaloid derived from cinchona bark. It is used as an antimalarial drug. For quinine pKb1 = 5.1 and pKb2 = 9.7 (pKb=-log Kb). Only one gram of quinine will dissolve in 1900.0 mL of solution. Calculate the pH of a saturated aqueous solution of quinine. Consider only the reaction Q H2O 34 QH^+ + OH- described by pKb1, where Q= quinine
