Question:

What will be the isoelectric point (pI), if pK1=5.4 and pK2= 7.6?

Options:

6.4

6.5

6.8

6.9

Correct Answer:

6.5

Explanation:

Isoelectric point (pI)= \(\frac{1}{2}\){pKpK2}

                              =\(\frac{1}{2}\){5.4 +7.6}

                              =\(\frac{1}{2}\){13}

                              =6.5
