Dependence of the maximal Hill coefficient () and the activation voltage at this slope (V_max) on c. The graph for was plotted based on Eq. 12 (shaded, left y-axis) and that of V_max (black, right y-axis) according to the equation V_max = (RT/2ZF)ln(1/(K_OK_C)), derived by solving the equation ∂n_H(V)/∂V = 0, which is a normalized second derivative of the MWC open probability expression. In this plot, for convenience, K_C was assigned a value of 1, whereas K_O values range from 10⁻⁵ to 10⁵. See text for further discussion.
