  2. Ion transport number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_transport_number

    The practical importance of high (i.e. close to 1) transference numbers of the charge-shuttling ion (i.e. Li+ in lithium-ion batteries) is related to the fact, that in single-ion devices (such as lithium-ion batteries) electrolytes with the transfer number of the ion near 1, concentration gradients do not develop. A constant electrolyte ...

  3. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    The model assigned E and C parameters to many Lewis acids and bases. Each acid is characterized by an E A and a C A. Each base is likewise characterized by its own E B and C B. The E and C parameters refer, respectively, to the electrostatic and covalent contributions to the strength of the bonds that the acid and base will form. The equation is

  4. Ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion

    The net charge of an ion is not zero because its total number of electrons is unequal to its total number of protons. A cation is a positively charged ion with fewer electrons than protons [2] (e.g. K + (potassium ion)) while an anion is a negatively charged ion with more electrons than protons. [3] (e.g. Cl − (chloride ion) and OH − ...

  5. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    An electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity through the movement of ions, but not through the movement of electrons. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This includes most soluble salts , acids , and bases , dissolved in a polar solvent like water.

  6. Charge transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_transfer_coefficient

    Charge transfer coefficient, and symmetry factor (symbols α and β, respectively) are two related parameters used in description of the kinetics of electrochemical reactions. They appear in the Butler–Volmer equation and related expressions.

  7. Electron transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_transfer

    Furthermore, theories have been put forward to take into account the effects of vibronic coupling on electron transfer, in particular, the PKS theory of electron transfer. [10] In proteins, ET rates are governed by the bond structures: the electrons, in effect, tunnel through the bonds comprising the chain structure of the proteins. [11]

  8. Acid–base reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acidbase_reaction

    In chemistry, an acidbase reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base.It can be used to determine pH via titration.Several theoretical frameworks provide alternative conceptions of the reaction mechanisms and their application in solving related problems; these are called the acidbase theories, for example, Brønsted–Lowry acidbase theory.

  9. Liquid junction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_junction_potential

    The most common method of eliminating the liquid junction potential is to place a salt bridge consisting of a saturated solution of potassium chloride (KCl) and ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3) with lithium acetate (CH 3 COOLi) between the two solutions constituting the junction. When such a bridge is used, the ions in the bridge are present in ...
