nonpolar aliphatic R groups
the process by which an atom or a molecule acquires a negative or positive charge by gaining or losing electrons to form ions, often in conjunction with other chemical changes.
ionization (ionization state)
Describes the derivation of pH as a measure of acidity in biological and chemical systems
The equation is also useful for estimating the pH of a buffer solution
It is widely used to calculate the isoelectric point of proteins (point at which protein neither accept nor yield proton)
henderson hasselbach eqn
