  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. Liquid junction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_junction_potential

    This will result in an electrical double layer of positive and negative charges at the junction of the two solutions. Thus at the point of junction, a potential difference will develop because of the ionic transfer. This potential is called liquid junction potential or diffusion potential which is non-equilibrium potential. The magnitude of the ...

  4. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    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 −ΔH = E A E B + C A C B + W. The W term represents a constant energy contribution for acidbase reaction such as the cleavage of a dimeric acid or base. The equation ...

  5. Ionic liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_liquid

    Protic ionic liquids are formed via a proton transfer from an acid to a base. [26] In contrast to other ionic liquids, which generally are formed through a sequence of synthesis steps, [2] protic ionic liquids can be created more easily by simply mixing the acid and base. [26] Phosphonium cations (R 4 P +) are less common but offer some ...

  6. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    Commercial electrolyte solutions are available, particularly for sick children (such as oral rehydration solution, Suero Oral, or Pedialyte) and athletes (sports drinks). Electrolyte monitoring is important in the treatment of anorexia and bulimia. In science, electrolytes are one of the main components of electrochemical cells. [2]

  7. Dissociation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_(chemistry)

    Weak bases and weak acids are generally weak electrolytes. In an aqueous solution there will be some CH 3 COOH and some CH 3 COO − and H +. A strong electrolyte is a solute that exists in solution completely or nearly completely as ions. Again, the strength of an electrolyte is defined as the percentage of solute that is ions, rather than ...

  8. Salt bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_bridge

    [1] It contains an electrolyte solution, typically an inert solution, used to connect the oxidation and reduction half-cells of a galvanic cell (voltaic cell), a type of electrochemical cell. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In short, it functions as a link connecting the anode and cathode half-cells within an electrochemical cell. [ 3 ]

  9. 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.
