Valences units

The values given in this table are only approximate, but they are adequate for process screening purposes with Eqs. (16-24) and (16-25). Rigorous calculations generally require that activity coefficients be accounted for. However, for the exchange between ions of the same valence at solution concentrations of 0.1 N or less, or between any ions at 0.01 N or less, the solution-phase activity coefficients prorated to unit valence will be similar enough that they can be omitted.

For the NaCl crystal, the radius ratio is 0.54, which is well within the range for an octahedral arrangement of anions around each cation (0.414 - 0.732). However, because this is a 1 1 compound, there are equal numbers of cations and anions. This means that there must be an identical arrangement of cations around each anion. In fact, for 1 1 compounds, the environment around each type of ion must be identical. We can see that this is so from a very important concept known as the electrostatic bond character. If we predict (and find) that six Cl- ions surround each Na+, each "bond" between a sodium ion and a chloride ion must have a bond character of 1/6 because the sodium has a unit valence, and... 

The basic component of electronegativity for all elements of arbitrary valence proves to be their ionization potential to a specified state of valence, referred to unit valence (7W/1P). Specified in Table 3.4 are the electronegativity values for elements at lower states of valence as calculated by Povarennykh—some have been determined by extrapolation.

The solution must be electrically neutral (unless a large external electrostatic potential gradient is applied). If the molar polyelectrolyte concentration is m, and the average valence is z, there must be mz counterions (of unit valence) in solution, for instance Na+ ions for a polyacid. 

Here So has been set to 1.0 valence unit (vu) making Rq the notional length of a bond of unit valence. They point out that even though the bond valence never...
