Bases cations

More substitution takes place than shown Na 33 or 33 refers to the exchangeable base (cation) of which 0.33 equivalent is a typical value. 

If S[ is a weak base (low DN) and S2 is a strong base, cations are selectively solvated by S2 conversely, if Sj is a good acceptor (high AN) it will preferentially solvate the anion. As a consequence, the Stokes radii of ions generally change with the composition of a binary solvent.

A much smaller amount of work has been done with nickel complexes of dmt ligands since they are more difficult to crystallize. Some complexes have been assembled combining [Ni(dmf)2] with viologen-based cations for applications in electrical conductivity and dioxygen activation.10 3-1035... 

The active site is viewed as an acid-base, cation-anion pair, hence, the basicity of the catalyst depends not only on the proton affinity of the oxide ion but also on the carbanion affinity of the cation. Thus, the acidity of the cation may determine the basicity of the catalyst. Specific interactions, i.e., effects of ion structure on the strength of the interaction, are likely to be evident when the carbanions differ radically in structure when this is likely the concept of catalyst basicity should be used with caution.

The first step in the catalytic cycle is the reaction between H2O2 and the Fe(ni) resting state of the enzyme to generate compound I, a high-oxidation-state intermediate comprising an Fe(IV) oxoferryl center and a porphyrin-based cation radical... 

In the salts based on segregated stacks of metallocenium-based cations with [M(mnt)2)] (M = Ni, Pd and Pt) anions, the anionic stacks are isolated from each other by the cations in a few compounds these stacks are regular (at high temperatures) but in most cases the [M(mnt)2)] units form dimers. The magnetic behavior of these compounds is dominated by the AF interactions between the anion units. 

Tyree and Bynum [132] described an ion chromatographic method for the determination of nitrate and phosphate in seawater. The pre-treatment comprised vigorous mixing of the sample with a silver-based cation-exchange resin, followed by filtration to remove the precipitated silver salt. 

Both ratio of base cations to aluminum, and the aluminum concentrations, are used as indicators for steady-state geochemical and biogeochemical processes. By assigning established critical loads to these indicators (for example, the concentrations of aluminum in soil solution should not exceed 0.2 meq/L and the base cations to aluminum ratio should not be less than 1), it is possible to compute the allowable acidification for each ecosystem. An extensive overview of critical values for the ratio of base cations to aluminum for a large variety of plants and trees can be found in Prof. Sverdrup s papers (for example, Sverdrup et al., 1995 Warfvinge et al., 1992, 1993). 

Nutrient uptake. Nutrient uptake includes base cation uptake (BCU) and nitrogen uptake (Nu). BC uptake assigns annual average uptake of Ca2+, Mg2+ and K+. The data represent an annual net uptake in keq/ha/yr and storage in stems and branches calculated over rotation. This includes the nutrients in the biomass compartments that are expected to be removed from the site at harvest. 

This equation equals the net input of (sea-salt corrected) base cations minus a critical leaching of acid-neutralizing capacity.
