Deviations from ionic model

Figure 3 shows calibration plots of log (particle diameter) vs. elution voliame difference (AV) between marker and particle using three different monodisperse latexes at a low eluant ionic strength of 1.29 mM SLS. These results illustrate the featiire of universal calibration behavior predicted by the capillary bed model as mentioned earlier. Of note also is the fact that the curve deviates from linearity for the 38 nm particle and begins to approach the origin as also indicated by the model calculations. 

With Amix//m = 0 the ideal Temkin model for ionic solutions [13] is obtained. If deviations from ideality are observed, a regular solution expression for this mixture that contains two species on each of the two sub-lattices can be derived using the general procedures already discussed. The internal energy is again calculated...

The physical theories for electric charges have been incorporated in colloid and surface chemistry for many years. In the treatment presented here, these theories have been selected, adapted, and applied to describe the retention of ionic solutes. The approximations made in these models are well known and have limitations. Here, they are chosen from four requirements they should have a meaningful physico-chemical interpretation, be easy to use, be easy to understand, and give practical and useful results. This implies that the presented models are useful starting points for describing and understanding the retention properties for the type of systems that are discussed here. When the experimental results deviate from the model, it may be possible to extend it within its framework. In other situations, empirically based functions may complement the model, or it may be necessary to resort to more sophisticated models. 

The deviations from the Szyszkowski-Langmuir adsorption theory have led to the proposal of a munber of models for the equihbrium adsorption of surfactants at the gas-Uquid interface. The aim of this paper is to critically analyze the theories and assess their applicabihty to the adsorption of both ionic and nonionic surfactants at the gas-hquid interface. The thermodynamic approach of Butler [14] and the Lucassen-Reynders dividing surface [15] will be used to describe the adsorption layer state and adsorption isotherm as a function of partial molecular area for adsorbed nonionic surfactants. The traditional approach with the Gibbs dividing surface and Gibbs adsorption isotherm, and the Gouy-Chapman electrical double layer electrostatics will be used to describe the adsorption of ionic surfactants and ionic-nonionic surfactant mixtures. The fimdamental modeling of the adsorption processes and the molecular interactions in the adsorption layers will be developed to predict the parameters of the proposed models and improve the adsorption models for ionic surfactants. Finally, experimental data for surface tension will be used to validate the proposed adsorption models. 

Solvation Effects. Many previous accounts of the activity coefficients have considered the connections between the solvation of ions and deviations from the DH limiting-laws in a semi-empirical manner, e.g., the Robinson and Stokes equation (3). In the interpretation of results according to our model, the parameter a also relates to the physical reality of a solvated ion, and the effects of polarization on the interionic forces are closely related to the nature of this entity from an electrostatic viewpoint. Without recourse to specific numerical results, we briefly illustrate the usefulness of the model by defining a polarizable cosphere (or primary solvation shell) as that small region within which the solvent responds to the ionic field in nonlinear manner the solvent outside responds linearly through mild Born-type interactions, described adequately with the use of the dielectric constant of the pure solvent. (Our comments here refer largely to activity coefficients in aqueous solution, and we assume complete dissociation of the solute. The polarizability of cations in some solvents, e.g., DMF and acetonitrile, follows a different sequence, and there is probably some ion-association.)... 

Curves plotted for AH° conv. hyd. and ionic radii given in Tables 5 and 6, and in col. 2 of Table 1 are shown in Fig. 4 for both alkali cations and halide anions. The uncertainty in the thermochemical data is taken as 0.5 kcal and the uncertainty in ionic radii is based on deviations from additivity of r0 values. From these curves A(AH° conv. hyd.) can be estimated and in Fig. 5 these values halved are plotted against (R- -a) 3. This curve becomes linear for large (i a)-3 values and this supports the use of the model based on charge-quadrupole interactions and assumptions concerning differences in kinetic contributions to the internal energy (39). 

The important quantity in the above equation which causes deviations from the ionic model is the constant, k, of the London energy which is proportional to the product of the polarizabilities of the interacting charge clouds. This energy increases down all Periodic Groups and is greatest in... 

Thus the partial ionic model of Pearson and Gray (13), and very similar models of greater sophistication (14, 15) show that a very major consideration in causing deviations from the ionic model is the size of the ionization potential of the exposed orbitals of the cations, as compared with the ionic potential of a negative charge placed distance re from the... 

Phillips and Williams (16) have proposed a general method of noting thermodynamic evidence for deviation from the ionic model presuming the latter to be closely followed by all IA and IIA cations.
