Title: Ionic solvation
Description: This wide-ranging coverage complements the previous volume Thermodynamics of solution, and presents a comprehensive view of Russian and Western results and discussions of the chemical and physico-chemical properties of solutions and processes within them. Emphasis is given to the chemical aspects of solvation as determined by the nature of solvents and electrolytes, and by the influence of external conditions, solution composition, isotopy, admixtures etc.

Practical applications are given across a large number of frequently encountered problems. The book contains a unique description of the relation between complex solvation processes and ion-solvent molecule interactions. The detailed analysis of quantitative characteristics of ions in solution will suggest new and effective approaches to studying reactivity and mechanism.

Consideration is given to the character of intermolecular interaction in pure solvents and to the peculiarities of ionic solvation in protic and aprotic solvents in the IR spectra. Readership: Academic and technical libraries for postgraduate and professional researchers in biochemistry and in physical, industrial, environmental and organometallic chemistry.
Subjects: Ionic solutions, Solvation
