JEE Main Chemistry question

Iso-electric point is a

(A)Specific temperature
(B)Suitable concentration of amino acid
(C)Hydrogen ion concentration that does not allow migration of amino acid under an electric fieldCorrect
(D)Melting point of an amino acid under the influence of an electric field

Answer: (C)

Solution

The isoelectric point is defined as the specific pH (hydrogen ion concentration) at which an amino acid exists as a net-neutral zwitterion and therefore does not migrate toward either electrode when placed in
