A series expansion of the extended Debye-H�ckel equation and application to linear prediction of stability constants
1996
The Debye-Hückel semiempirical extended equation is frequently used to calculate activity coefficients of chemical species and equilibrium constants at ionic strengths different from those used in their experimental evaluation. A series expansion of the extended Debye-Hückel equation is proposed here and checked with experimental data taken from the literature. The expansion is linear in the ionic parameters and yields a geometrical series which converges rapidly and that enables the accurate calculation of interpolated and extrapolated activity coefficients and equilibrium constants by simple and multiple linear regression without previous knowledge of the ionic parameters.
Crossing the boundary between face-centred cubic and hexagonal close packed: the structure of nanosized cobalt is unraveled by a model accounting for…
2014
The properties of nanostructured cobalt in the fields of magnetic, catalytic and biomaterials depend critically on Co close packing. This paper reports a structural analysis of nanosized cobalt based on the whole X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern simulation allowed by the Debye equation. The underlying structural model involves statistical sequences of cobalt layers and produces simulated XRD powder patterns bearing the concurrent signatures of hexagonal and cubic close packing (h.c.p. and f.c.c.). Shape, size distribution and distance distribution between pairs of atoms are also modelled. The simulation algorithm allows straightforward fitting to experimental data and hence the quantitative …
The non-equilibrium charge screening effects in diffusion-driven systems with pattern formation.
2011
The effects of non-equilibrium charge screening in mixtures of oppositely charged interacting molecules on surfaces are analyzed in a closed system. The dynamics of charge screening and the strong deviation from the standard Debye-Huckel theory are demonstrated via a new formalism based on computing radial distribution functions suited for analyzing both short-range and long-range spacial ordering effects. At long distances the inhomogeneous molecular distribution is limited by diffusion, whereas at short distances (of the order of several coordination spheres) by a balance of short-range (Lennard-Jones) and long-range (Coulomb) interactions. The non-equilibrium charge screening effects in …
