In chemistry, a counterion (sometimes written as "counter ion", pronounced as such) is the ion that accompanies an ionic species in order to maintain electric neutrality. In table salt (NaCl, also known as sodium chloride) the sodium ion (positively charged) is the counterion for the chloride ion (negatively charged) and vice versa.
Vice (stylized in all caps) is a Canadian-American magazine focused on lifestyle, arts, culture, and news/politics.It was founded in 1994 in Montreal as an alternative punk magazine, [2] and its founders later launched the youth media company Vice Media, which consists of divisions including the printed magazine as well as a website, broadcast news unit, a film production company, a record ...
The Debye–Hückel theory [7] was based on the assumption that each ion was surrounded by a spherical "cloud" or ionic atmosphere made up of ions of the opposite charge. Expressions were derived for the variation of single-ion activity coefficients as a function of ionic strength. This theory was very successful for dilute solutions of 1:1 ...

where z is the electrical charge on the ion, I is the ionic strength, ε and b are interaction coefficients and m and c are concentrations. The summation extends over the other ions present in solution, which includes the ions produced by the background electrolyte. The first term in these expressions comes from Debye–Hückel theory.

Low-energy ion scattering spectroscopy (LEIS), sometimes referred to simply as ion scattering spectroscopy (ISS), is a surface-sensitive analytical technique used to characterize the chemical and structural makeup of materials.

A new definition, in terms of the elementary charge, will take effect on 20 May 2019. [141] The new definition defines the elementary charge (the charge of the proton) as exactly 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 coulombs. This would implicitly define the coulomb as 1 ⁄ 0.160 217 6634 × 10 18 elementary charges. Coulomb's law
