Zwitterion
'Zwitter' is german for 'hybrid', and zwitterions are chemical species that manage to be both cations and anions at the same time. How can this come about? Consider ammonium acetate (NH4CH3COO). It is a perfectly ordinary salt, and when dissolved in water splits into its two constituent ions, NH4+ a... Found op http://www.kcpc.usyd.edu.au/discovery/glossary-all.html

zwitterion
Ion that has both a positive and a negative charge, such as an amino acid in neutral solution. For example, glycine contains both a basic amino group (NH2) and an acidic carboxyl group (COOH); when these are both ionized in aqueous solution, the acid group loses a proton while the amino g...
