Use the Ampholyte node generically to define any species where the average charge depends on the pH of the solution. The
Dissociation model can be based either on a set of
Equilibrium constants or an
Average charge.
When using the Equilibrium constants the
Base charge in last dissociation step,
z0 (unitless), needs to be set and be defined as an integer.
The Average charge,

(unitless) parameter is typically a function of pH and can be added as an analytical function or an interpolation polynomial under
Definitions. The average squared charge, used in the electrolyte potential equation, is calculated automatically based on

.
