They will not be combined. They will exist as individual molecules. And that's because inside that pure water, we have enough water molecules to basically surround the hydrophilic section of our protein and stabilize that protein structure via hydrogen bonds. So we see in pure water, we have plenty of water molecules present that can interact with the charge and hydrophilic sections, hydrophilic amino acids of that protein. Now, what we want to basically ask right now is what happens when we add salt into our pure water solution that contains dissolved protein molecules? So we can add, for example, sodium chloride.
