Opis

This book provides a detailed and systematic analysis of the properties of ions at the air/water interface. Unifying older and newer theories and measurements, it emphasizes the contributions of simple ions to surface tension behavior, and the practical consequences. It presents fundamental knowledge regarding ions in fluid /fluid systems and gives scientists a quantitative, rigorous, and objectively experimental methodology they can employ in their research. Chapters cover surface tension and thermodynamic properties of pure water, simple salt solutions, mixed electrolyte solutions, zwitterionic amino acids, and more.
