Explain what is wrong with the following statement At its isoelectric point, the charge on all molecules of a particular protein is0.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The given statement is wrong because nopH at which all molecules would have zero charge

Step by step solution

01

Derivation of isoelectric pH.

  • The isoelectric point (pI, pH (I), IEP) is the pH at which a molecule in the statistical mean carries no net electrical charge or is electrically neutral.

  • The standard abbreviation for the isoelectric point is pH (I), though pI is also used and is used in this article for brevity.

02

Determing the reason for the following statement.

  • In this task we will explain what is wrong with the statement: At its isoelectric point, the charge on all molecules of a particular protein is0.

  • In this case the average charge would be 0 and every molecule has a different :isoelectric point.

  • Therefore, there is nopH at which all molecules would have zero charge.

Hence the reason why the following statement at its isoelectric point, the charge on all molecules of a particular protein is0 is found.
