When determining the stability constants for ternary complexes, M p A q B r it is common practice the fix the values for the corresponding binary complexes M p′ A q′ and M p′′ B q′′, at values which have been determined in separate experiments. Use of such constraints reduces the number of parameters to be determined, but may result ...
The effect of the particle size on solubility constant can be quantified as follows: = + where *K A is the solubility constant for the solute particles with the molar surface area A, *K A→0 is the solubility constant for substance with molar surface area tending to zero (i.e., when the particles are large), γ is the surface tension ...
Solubility constants are used to describe saturated solutions of ionic compounds of relatively low solubility (see solubility equilibrium). The solubility constant is a special case of an equilibrium constant. Since it is a product of ion concentrations in equilibrium, it is also known as the solubility product. It describes the balance between ...
There are many ways to define the proportionality constant of Henry's law, which can be subdivided into two fundamental types: One possibility is to put the aqueous phase into the numerator and the gaseous phase into the denominator ("aq/gas"). This results in the Henry's law solubility constant . Its value increases with increased solubility.
Solvation is, in concept, distinct from solubility. Solvation or dissolution is a kinetic process and is quantified by its rate. Solubility quantifies the dynamic equilibrium state achieved when the rate of dissolution equals the rate of precipitation. The consideration of the units makes the distinction clearer.
The thermodynamic equation for the Gibbs energy change accompanying mixing at constant temperature and (external) pressure is = A change, denoted by , is the value of a variable for a solution or mixture minus the values for the pure components considered separately.
An equation similar to that of Kelvin can be derived for the solubility of small particles or droplets in a liquid, by means of the connection between vapour pressure and solubility, thus the Kelvin equation also applies to solids, to slightly soluble liquids, and their solutions if the partial pressure is replaced by the solubility of the ...
Hansen solubility parameters were developed by Charles M. Hansen in his Ph.D thesis in 1967 [1] [2] as a way of predicting if one material will dissolve in another and form a solution. [3] They are based on the idea that like dissolves like where one molecule is defined as being 'like' another if it bonds to itself in a similar way.
