The total charge integrated over the entire interface comprising electrode and associated electrolyte is zero. 

The two electron coulomb integral aa/bb) is smaller than the point charge integral (aa/Ri1) at all finite distances and therefore the use of Eq. (17) introduces an underestimation of an attractive contribution to the intermolecular energy of interaction or, if we put it the other way round, a net repulsion between the molecules results.

The atomic basin boundaries were defined for TNDAP [12,15], and the atomic charges integrated within the basins with the TOPXD program [30]. The integrated atomic charge q(Q) over the atomic basin Q is defined as a difference between nuclear Z and electronic N(Q) charges ... 

It was shown long ago that accurate electron density maps can be obtained from three-dimensional x-ray diffraction data (see Section XI). Furthermore, Coppens [147], one of the pioneers in the technique, demonstrated that a direct estimate of the amount of charge transferred can be obtained by means of a numerical charge integration in the volume occupied by each molecule in the asymmetric unit. The method, applied to TTF-TCNQ at 100 K, provided one of the very first reliable estimates of the charge on TTF and TCNQ ions [i.e., 0.48 and 0.60 ( 0.15) electrons, respectively]. However, it cannot be of routine use since highly accurate data sets are mandatory. 

Such analysis can reveal bond paths (lines of maximum ED finking two atoms), exact location of the bond critical points, bond elhpticity (deviation from cylindrical symmetry), and so on. The real atomic boundaries can be found and the effective atomic charges integrated. 

The availability of r° (or pAg) curves at several electrolyte concentrations enables the establishment of the Esin-Markov coefficient 3.4.14) and the ensuing determination of the ionic components of charge, integrating 3.4.16] l Figures 3.45 and 3.46 give results of the former and the latter, respectively. 

The ion beam produces a spot larger than the hole in the sample holder and currents in the range of 100 nA cm to tens of iA cm" . The integrated ion flux (fluence in ions cm" ) is measured, by a charge integrator, from the ion current monitored during irradiation. For further details on the experimental apparatus see [15]. 

Figure 8. EG conversion to CO2 by Ag(II) in HNO3 plotted against cumulative charge (integrated current). Experiments were conducted at 24% i (336mA and 27°C), 40% i (673 mA and 33°C), and 58% iL (1346 mA and 42°C). The electrode separator was a Nafion 117 cation-exchange membrane.

In the presence of other ions it is necessary to account for the screening effect of the ionic atmosphere. It is then useful to introduce a more general form of the electrostatic potential term of Eq. (3.66) by a charging integral...

This defines the important exchange-correlation hole density pxc (2 1) as the differenee between the conditional probability density and the ordinary electron density. The following total charge integral rules hold for parallel aa and a/3 antiparallel electron spins ... 

Here D is the diffusion coefficient, c is the ionic concentration, and is the electrostatic potential caused by the charges within the system and the external boundary conditions. The absolute temperature of the solution is T, whereas kg is Boltzmann s constant and q is the ionic charge. Integrating Eq. [53] once gives...
