It can be seen from the above discussion that the use of nanoionic materials for gas sensors is a natural extension to the findings already reported. Nanosized materials offer advantages in terms of improved sensor response due to the much higher surface areas available. However, the definition of a nano ionic sensor material can be very broad the nanoionic component of the sensor material might refer to the bulk majority phase, but alternatively it could refer to a dispersed catalytic or dopant phase, or even a combination of both. 

Three different complexes were proposed, Thj(OH)j" their eqnilibrium constants, logjg ,(Th (OH) ") ent total concentrations of the NaNOs ionic medium as shown in Table A-60. The large uncertainty in the determination of the equilibrium constant for the (15,6) complex is due to the small maximum value of. ...

Ionic repulsion between anionic samples and the resin causes poor resolution. As shown in Fig. 4.17, the addition of only 0.01 M NaNO, results in normal elution and peak shape for an anionic polymer, sodium polyacrylate.

Sodium nitrate, NaNOs, is an example of an ionic substance that contains a group of atoms with a net charge. Sodium is present as Na atomic cations. The other atoms of sodium nitrate are grouped together in one structure, NO3, which carries a -1 charge (Figure S-lOl. This anion is a molecular ion, the nitrate ion. The...

Reverse osmosis and nano-filtration are high-pressure membrane separation processes (typically 10 to 50 bar for reverse osmosis and 5 to 20 bar for nano-filtration), which can be used to reject dissolved inorganic salt or heavy metals. The processes were discussed in Chapter 10 and are particularly useful for removal of ionic species, such... 

If a double-substitution reaction took place, NaNO, and KCl would be produced. However, both of these are soluble and ionic hence, there is no driving force and therefore no reaction.

These alternative processes can be divided into two main categories, those that involve insoluble (Chapter 3) or soluble (Chapter 4) supports coupled with continuous flow operation or filtration on the macro - nano scale, and those in which the catalyst is immobilised in a separate phase from the product. These chapters are introduced by a discussion of aqueous biphasic systems (Chapter 5), which have already been commercialised. Other chapters then discuss newer approaches involving fluorous solvents (Chapter 6), ionic liquids (Chapter 7) and supercritical fluids (Chapter 8). 

KC1, NaNOs and LiF are ionic solids. Ionic solids don t conduct electricity in the solid state, however, aqueous solutions and molten forms of ionic compounds contain mobile ions so they can conduct electricity Thus, aqueous KC1 and LiF conduct electricity but solid NaN03 doesn t.
