Title: Thermodynamic and transport properties of aqueous and molten electrolytes

Book ·
OSTI ID:6491636

This book examines the physical chemistry of electrolytes in solution and in the molten state. Topics considered include ionic solvation (solvents, thermodynamic and transport properties, spectroscopic and diffraction methods, theoretical aspects of solvation), ionic interactions and activity behavior of electrolyte solutions (the Debye-Hueckel evaluation of the activity coefficient of an electrolyte in solution, statistical-mechanical treatments of ionic interactions in solution, ion-solvent interactions in the activity behavior of electrolytes, short-range ionic interactions), the conductance of electrolyte solutions (the basis of the Onsager approach, the boundary conditions, differential equations for two-particle distribution functions, recent developments in conductance, transference numbers, ionic limiting mobilities, the conductance of mixtures of electrolytes, optimization in measurements and data processing), proton solvation and proton transfer in chemical and electrochemical processes (proton solvation and characterization of the H/sub 3/O/sup +/ ion, proton transfer in chemical ionization processes in solution, continuous proton transfer in conductance processes, proton transfer in electrode processes), and the structure and thermodynamics of molten salts (molten salts as liquids, single salts, salt mixtures). Nonaqueous solutions are not covered in this volume.
