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
the point at which the protein neither accepts or yields protons (molecule carries no net electric charge)
isoelectric point
