  1. RMSD exp of simulation results to experimental k on is calculated over the range of ionic strengths between 0 and 0.67 M. The unit of \(\textit {k}_{\text {on}}^{\text {0}}\), \(\textit {k}_{\text {on}}^{\text {H}}\) and RMSD is 1011M-1 min -1. And the error is the standard deviation of parameter fits using nonlinear least squares.
