Figure 7.8 Relationship between the octahedral site preference energy and distribution coefficient of divalent transition metal ions partitioned between olivine or pyroxene crystals and the basaltic groundmass (modified from Henderson Dale, 1969 Henderson, 1982, p. 147).

A relationship between octahedral site preference energies (table 6.3) and distribution coefficients has been demonstrated for transition metal ions partitioned between olivine or pyroxene crystals and the groundmass of oceanic basalts, which is assumed to represent the composition of the magma from which the ferromagnesian silicates crystallized (Henderson and Dale, 1969 Dale and Henderson, 1972). Plots of In D against OSPE, such as those illustrated in fig. 7.8, show linear trends between the two parameters. 

The shift in the voltammogram for a metal ion in the presence of a ligand may be used to determine both the metal-ligand complex s stoichiometry and its formation constant. To derive a relationship between the relevant variables we begin with two equations the Nernst equation for the reduction of O... 

In EIS, a potential is applied across a corroding metal in solution, causing current to flow The amount of current depends upon the corrosion reaction on the metal surface and the flow of ions in solution. If the potential is apphed as a sine wave, it will cause harmonics of the current output. The relationship between the apphed potential and current output is the impedance, which is analogous to resistance in a DC circiiit. 

The rates of hydrolysis of the ester group in compounds A and B have been compared. The effect of an added metal ion (Np+) on the rate of hydrolysis has been studied, and the observed rate constants for attack by OH are tabulated. Suggest the most favorable transition-state stmcture for the addition step of the hydrolysis reaction for each substrate under each set of conditions. Discuss the relationship between the stmctures of these transition states and the relative rates of attack by hydroxide ion. 

One of the most important parameters that defines the structure and stability of inorganic crystals is their stoichiometry - the quantitative relationship between the anions and the cations [134]. Oxygen and fluorine ions, O2 and F, have very similar ionic radii of 1.36 and 1.33 A, respectively. The steric similarity enables isomorphic substitution of oxygen and fluorine ions in the anionic sub-lattice as well as the combination of complex fluoride, oxyfluoride and some oxide compounds in the same system. On the other hand, tantalum or niobium, which are the central atoms in the fluoride and oxyfluoride complexes, have identical ionic radii equal to 0.66 A. Several other cations of transition metals are also sterically similar or even identical to tantalum and niobium, which allows for certain isomorphic substitutions in the cation sublattice. 

Luciferase-catalyzed luminescence of luciferin. Odontosyllis luciferin emits light in the presence of Mg2+, molecular oxygen and luciferase. The relationship between the luminescence intensity and the pH of the medium shows a broad optimum (Fig. 7.2.8). The luminescence reaction requires a divalent alkaline earth ion, of which Mg2+ is most effective (optimum concentration 30 mM). Monovalent cations such as Na+, K+, and NH have little effect, and many heavy metal ions, such as Hg2+, Cu2+, Co2+ and Zn2+, are generally inhibitory. The activity of crude preparations of luciferase progressively decreases by repeated dialysis and also by concentrating the solutions under reduced pressure. However, the decreased luciferase activity can be completely restored to the original activity by the addition of 1 mM HCN (added as KCN). The relationship between the concentration of HCN and the luciferase activity is shown in Fig. 7.2.9. Low concentrations of h and K3Fe(CN)6 also enhance luminescence, but their effects are only transient. 

Considerable effort has been expended on Ag atoms and small, silver clusters. Bates and Gruen (10) studied the spectra of sputtered silver atoms (a metal target was bombarded with a beam of 2-keV, argon ions produced with a sputter ion-gun) isolated in D, Ne, and N2. They found that an inverse relationship between Zett of the metal atom and the polarizability of rare-gas matrices (as determined from examination of...

Levich124 has given the relationships between the limiting current i) and the bulk concentration C of the metal ion for plate electrodes, conical electrodes and rotated disc electrodes (RDEs) under hydrodynamic conditions anticipating his well known equations treated in Section 3.3.2.2 on hydrodynamic electrodes, we may assume the relationships concerned using the more general equation... 

When the species common to the metal and the solution are metal ions M2+, which are rapidly exchanged between the two phases, Eqs (3.1.5) and (3.1.15) readily yield the relationship for the Galvani potential difference between the metal and the solution... 

An alternative approach is that adopted by Horrocks and co-workers, where the aromatic residues in metal-binding proteins are used as sensitizers. Since the distance between the metal and the donor is effectively fixed, this provides a rigid scaffold for the experiment, and the absence of a directly conjugated pathway between the metals means that Forster (through space) energy transfer can be assumed. The r-6 distance-dependence of this means that the extent of sensitized emission from the lanthanide ion provides information on the spatial relationship between the metal-ion binding site (lanthanide ions often bind at Ca2+ sites) and nearby aromatic residues. 58-60...
