  2. Liquid junction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_junction_potential

    Liquid junction potential (shortly LJP) occurs when two solutions of electrolytes of different concentrations are in contact with each other. The more concentrated solution will have a tendency to diffuse into the comparatively less concentrated one.

  3. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    A Lewis base is also a Brønsted–Lowry base, but a Lewis acid does not need to be a Brønsted–Lowry acid. The classification into hard and soft acids and bases ( HSAB theory ) followed in 1963. The strength of Lewis acid-base interactions, as measured by the standard enthalpy of formation of an adduct can be predicted by the Drago–Wayland ...

  4. 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 ...

  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. 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.

  7. HSAB theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSAB_theory

    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

  8. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    According to the original formulation of Lewis, when a neutral base forms a bond with a neutral acid, a condition of electric stress occurs. [7] The acid and the base share the electron pair that formerly belonged to the base. [7] As a result, a high dipole moment is created, which can only be decreased to zero by rearranging the molecules. [7]

  9. Ionic bonding - Wikipedia

    The salt NaCl is then said to consist of the acid rest Cl − and the base rest Na +. The removal of electrons to form the cation is endothermic, raising the system's overall energy. There may also be energy changes associated with breaking of existing bonds or the addition of more than one electron to form anions.
