Enhancement of Capacitance. The agreement between (modified) Verwey-Niessen models and experiment is less satisfactory for lower-polarity organic media (e.g., DCE, as opposed to NB) and for lower electrolyte concentrations [13]. What is the physical origin of the higher experimental capacitances seen for these conditions As noted by Schmickler and co-workers [59], this enhancement of capacitance at the ITIES relative to the classical model stands in contrast to the response of electrode-electrolyte interface, where the capacitance is often found to be lower than the Gouy-Chapman function. 

Example 3.2 Atmospheric Heating Rates The Chapman Function The nature of the attenuation that occurs as radiation penetrates the atmosphere can be seen by considering the Beer-Lambert law of light absorption for a single absorbing component. 

Chemical properties of deposited monolayers have been studied in various ways. The degree of ionization of a substituted coumarin film deposited on quartz was determined as a function of the pH of a solution in contact with the film, from which comparison with Gouy-Chapman theory (see Section V-2) could be made [151]. Several studies have been made of the UV-induced polymerization of monolayers (as well as of multilayers) of diacetylene amphiphiles (see Refs. 168, 169). Excitation energy transfer has been observed in a mixed monolayer of donor and acceptor molecules in stearic acid [170]. Electrical properties have been of interest, particularly the possibility that a suitably asymmetric film might be a unidirectional conductor, that is, a rectifier (see Refs. 171, 172). Optical properties of interest include the ability to make planar optical waveguides of thick LB films [173, 174].

Instead of an exact calculation, Gouy and Chapman have assumed that (4) can be approximated by combining the Poisson equation with a Boltzmann factor which contains the mean electrical potential existing in the interface. (This approximation will be rederived below). From this approach the distribution of the potential across the interface can be calculated as the function of a and from (2) we get a differential capacitance Cqc- It has been shown by Grahame that Cqc fits very well the measurements in the case of low ionic concentrations [11]. For higher concentrations another capacitance in series, Q, had to be introduced. It is called the inner layer capacitance and it was first considered by Stern [1,2]. Then the experimental capacitance Cexp is analyzed according to ...

It is natural to consider the case when the surface affinity h to adsorb or desorb ions remains unchanged when charging the wall but other cases could be considered as well. In Fig. 13 the differential capacitance C is plotted as a function of a for several values of h. The curves display a maximum for non-positive values of h and a flat minimum for positive values of h. At the pzc the value of the Gouy-Chapman theory and that for h = 0 coincide and the same symmetry argument as in the previous section for the totally symmetric local interaction can be used to rationalize this result.

Chapman-Enskog Expansion As we have seen above, the momentum flux density tensor depends on the one-particle distribution function /g, which is itself a solution of the discrete Boltzman s equation (9.80). As in the continuous case, finding the full solution is in general an intractable problem. Nonetheless, we can still obtain a useful approximation through a perturbative Chapman-Enskog expansion.

Bather than using the Chapman-Enskog procedure directly, we shall employ the technique of Burnett,12 which involves an expansion of the distribution function in a set of orthogonal polynomials in particle-velocity space. 

The Burnett Expansion.—The Chapman-Enskog solution of the Boltzmann equation can be most easily developed through an expansion procedure due to Burnett.15 For the distribution function of a system that is close to equilibrium, we may use as a zeroth approximation a local equilibrium distribution function given by the maxwellian form ... 

The nonlocal diffuse-layer theory near Eam0 has been developed283 with a somewhat complicated function oLyjind of solvent structural parameters. At low concentrations,/ ) approaches unity, reaching the Gouy-Chapman Qatc- 0. At moderate concentrations, deviations from this law are described by the effective spatial correlation range A of the orientational polarization fluctuations of the solvent. 

In reality, many other chemical and photochemical processes take place leading to a sort of steady-state concentration of O3 which is a sensitive function of height. To be accurate, it is necessary to include the reactions of nitrogen oxides, chlorine- and hydrogen-containing free radicals (molecules containing an unpaired electron). However, occurrence of a layer due to the altitude dependence of the photochemical processes is of fundamental geochemical importance and can be demonstrated simply by the approach of Chapman (1930).

The physical meaning of the g (ion) potential depends on the accepted model of an ionic double layer. The proposed models correspond to the Gouy-Chapman diffuse layer, with or without allowance for the Stem modification and/or the penetration of small counter-ions above the plane of the ionic heads of the adsorbed large ions. " The experimental data obtained for the adsorption of dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide and sodium dodecyl sulfate strongly support the Haydon and Taylor mode According to this model, there is a considerable space between the ionic heads and the surface boundary between, for instance, water and heptane. The presence in this space of small inorganic ions forms an additional diffuse layer that partly compensates for the diffuse layer potential between the ionic heads and the bulk solution. Thus, the Eq. (31) may be considered as a linear combination of two linear functions, one of which [A% - g (dip)] crosses the zero point of the coordinates (A% and 1/A are equal to zero), and the other has an intercept on the potential axis. This, of course, implies that the orientation of the apparent dipole moments of the long-chain ions is independent of A.

To evaluate the contribution of the SHG active oriented cation complexes to the ISE potential, the SHG responses were analyzed on the basis of a space-charge model [30,31]. This model, which was proposed to explain the permselectivity behavior of electrically neutral ionophore-based liquid membranes, assumes that a space charge region exists at the membrane boundary the primary function of lipophilic ionophores is to solubilize cations in the boundary region of the membrane, whereas hydrophilic counteranions are excluded from the membrane phase. Theoretical treatments of this model reported so far were essentially based on the assumption of a double-diffuse layer at the organic-aqueous solution interface and used a description of the diffuse double layer based on the classical Gouy-Chapman theory [31,34].
