Question

This is all part of one question. It goes together. (I wrote D and E that were cut off from the picture.) Please help me solve this since it all follows a line.

D. At which pH value does the amino group of amino acid have the best buffering capacity?

9.69
1.53
6.01
3.00
10.5

E. What is the pI (isoelectric point)?
