Quinine (C20H24N2O2) a white crystalline bitter tasting powder which was originally used as a preventative medication for malaria. It is a weak base with kb=3.3 x 10^-6 M. However, Quinine is now more commonly used in small concentrations in tonic water. Quinine is responsible for the fluorescent properties when tonic water is under ultraviolet light (blacklights). Due to the toxic effects of quinine the United States limits the quinine content to 83 ppm for each 1 liter bottle.

Write a balanced chemical equation of quinine solid dissolving in water including all phases, and indicate which species is an acid, base, conjugate acid and conjugate base.

Calculate the pH of the tonic water.

Professor Solomon tells her class, "Neurocognitive disorders are diagnosed through a process of elimination. Neurocognitive disorders may be due to a specific medical condition, a substance-induced condition, or may result from multiple etiologies. The category of neurocognitive disorders is arbitrary because other mental disorders may be associated with neurocognitive disorders and organic involvement. It is always difficult to measure, assess, and determine the causes of neurocognitive disorders." Which part of Professor Solomon's statement is accurate?​

A. Neurocognitive disorders are diagnosed through a process of elimination.

B. Neurocognitive disorders may be due to a specific medical condition, a substance-induced condition, or may result from multiple etiologies.

C. The category of neurocognitive disorders is arbitrary because other mental disorders may be associated with neurocognitive disorders and organic involvement.

D. The causes of neurocognitive disorders cannot be effectively measured or assessed as of yet.
