Monte Carlo simulations were performed to obtain the distribution of charged segments around the center of mass in a lattice-model, isolated weak polyelectrolyte with attractive segment--segment (hydrophobic) interactions. The charge distribution (relative to the mean ionization for a given state) is shown to depend essentially on chain conformation (stiffness).
