Attraction electrostatic

The electrovalent bond is formed by electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Thus Na, with one outer electron, loses this electron to achieve the noble gas Ne structure, while Cl with seven outer electrons, gains one electron to achieve the Ar structure. 

This topic has been dealt with in depth previously, and it should be particularly noted that in each type of hydrolysis the initial electrostatic attraction of the water molecule is followed by covalent bond formation and (in contrast to hydration) the water molecule is broken up. 

The first term in eludes the electrostatic attraction s and repulsions between the net charges on pairs of atoms, one from each molecule. The second in volves in teraction s between occupied and vacant molecular orbitals on the two molecules. The hypothesis is that the reaction proceeds in a way to produce the most favorable...

Many biological processes involve an associa tion between two species in a step prior to some subsequent transformation This asso ciation can take many forms It can be a weak associ ation of the attractive van der Waals type or a stronger interaction such as a hydrogen bond It can be an electrostatic attraction between a positively charged atom of one molecule and a negatively charged atom of another Covalent bond formation between two species of complementary chemical re activity represents an extreme kind of association It often occurs in biological processes in which aide hydes or ketones react with amines via imine inter mediates...

Precipitate particles grow in size because of the electrostatic attraction between charged ions on the surface of the precipitate and oppositely charged ions in solution. Ions common to the precipitate are chemically adsorbed, extending the crystal lattice. Other ions may be physically adsorbed and, unless displaced, are incorporated into the crystal lattice as a coprecipitated impurity. Physically adsorbed ions are less strongly attracted to the surface and can be displaced by chemically adsorbed ions. 

In case of the rigid lock-and-key type receptor forming five hydrogen bonds plus two extended electrostatic attractions (Fig. 3a), one mismatched hydrogen bond will result in only a small reduction in overall binding free energy 4.18-8.36 kJ mol (1-2 kcal mol ) out of...

Collectors ndFrothers. Collectors play a critical role ia flotation (41). These are heteropolar organic molecules characterized by a polar functional group that has a high affinity for the desired mineral, and a hydrocarbon group, usually a simple 2—18 carbon atom hydrocarbon chain, that imparts hydrophobicity to the minerals surface after the molecule has adsorbed. Most collectors are weak acids or bases or their salts, and are either ionic or neutral. The mode of iateraction between the functional group and the mineral surface may iavolve a chemical reaction, for example, chemisorption, or a physical iateraction such as electrostatic attraction. 

Figure 5 shows the enhanced concentration of oppositely charged ions near the charged surface, and the depleted concentration of similarly charged ions near the charged surface due to electrostatic attractions and repulsions. Both factors reduce the effective potential, /, as the distance from the surface, X, increases. The distance at which / drops to 1/ (37%) of its value at the Stem plane is called the counterion atmosphere decay distance,... 

Inorganic Ions. Because of electrostatic attraction, positive ions are attracted to negatively charged surfaces and have a higher concentration near the surface than in the bulk. Negative ions are repeUed from the negative surface and have a lower concentration near that surface. Ions which are very strongly bound (// ds Stem layer, whereas those that can move into and out of the ionic atmosphere < kT) are in the Helmholtz... 

EIectrosta.tlcs. Electrostatic interactions, such as salt bridges, result from the electrostatic attraction that occurs between oppositely charged molecules. These usually involve a single cation, eg, the side chain of Lys or Arg, or the amino terminus, etc, interacting with a single anion, eg, the side chain of Glu or Asp, or the carboxyl terminus, etc. This attractive force is iaversely proportional to the distance between the charges and the dielectric constant of the solvent, as described by Coulomb s law. 

The physical picture in concentrated electrolytes is more apdy described by the theory of ionic association (18,19). It was pointed out that as the solutions become more concentrated, the opportunity to form ion pairs held by electrostatic attraction increases (18). This tendency increases for ions with smaller ionic radius and in the lower dielectric constant solvents used for lithium batteries. A significant amount of ion-pairing and triple-ion formation exists in the high concentration electrolytes used in batteries. The ions are solvated, causing solvent molecules to be highly oriented and polarized. In concentrated solutions the ions are close together and the attraction between them increases ion-pairing of the electrolyte. Solvation can tie up a considerable amount of solvent and increase the viscosity of concentrated solutions. 

Dip coating is very commonly used for coating continuous objects that are not flat, such as fibers, and for irregularly shaped discrete objects. Tears or drops of coating at the bottom of dip coated articles may be removed by electrostatic attraction as the article is moved along a conveyor. 

Another method that has great potential for the preparation of advanced prepregs and has been explored extensively requites fine powders. The reinforcing fibers are coated with fine particles of the resin and, when heated, the resin flows over the fiber. This method requites finely divided particles either in aqueous solution, in an inert volatile solvent, or as high dielectric material that can be charged and coated by electrostatic attraction to the fiber. Synthetic methods that make fine particles, similar to that described for PEEK (23), are needed.
