Fig. 15 Two of the simplest theories for the dissolution of solids (A) the interfacial barrier model, and (B) the diffusion layer model, in the simple form of Nemst [105] and Brunner [106] (dashed trace) and in the more exact form of Levich [104] (solid trace). c is the concentration of the dissolving solid, cs is the solubility, cb is the concentration in the bulk solution, and x is the distance from the solid-liquid interface of thickness h or 8, depending on how it is defined.
