Ion-Pair Theory of Concentrated Electrolytes. I. Basic Concepts
Abstract
The statistical thermodynamics of symmetrical “primitive-model” electrolytes is formulated in such a way that all ions are uniquely paired. The behavior of the resulting fluid of “polar molecules” may conveniently be described by a wavelength-dependent dielectric constant ε(k). A rigorous formula of the Kirkwood type for ε(k) is derived. Since ion-atmosphere mean charge densities may be obtained from ε(k), this dielectric function is utilized in construction of an electrolyte free-energy expression [Eq. (50)], as well as to establish an exact second-moment condition on the ion atmospheres [Eq. (73)]. From the latter it is demonstrated that for rigid spherical ions of diameter a, the ion atmospheres necessarily each have nonuniform charge sign when κa > 61 / 2 (κ− 1 = Debye length).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
