On the recombination of hydronium and hydroxide ions in water.
The recombination of hydronium and hydroxide ions following water ionization is one of the most fundamental processes determining the pH of water. The neutralization step once the solvated ions are in close proximity is phenomenologically understood to be fast, but the molecular mechanism has not been directly probed by experiments. We elucidate the mechanism of recombination in liquid water wi...
متن کاملIons at aqueous interfaces: from water surface to hydrated proteins.
The surfaces of aqueous solutions are traditionally viewed as devoid of inorganic ions. Molecular simulations and surface-selective spectroscopic techniques show, however, that large polarizable anions and hydronium cations can be found (and even enhanced) at the surface and are involved in chemistry at the air/water interface. Here, we review recent studies of ions at the air/water interface a...
متن کاملSurface nanostructures induced by slow highly charged ions on CaF2 single crystals
We present first results on the generation of surface nanostuctures by slow HCI on cleaved CaF2 (111) surfaces. The CaF2 single crystals were irradiated with slow (v 1 a.u.) Xe HCI from the Heidelberg-EBIT. Like for other ionic fluoride single crystals, ion-induced surface structures in CaF2 are known to be stable in atmospheric conditions at room temperature. After irradiation the crystals wer...
متن کاملPreparation and transport properties of non-hydrated Na0.5CoO2 single crystals
Single crystals of Na0.5CoO2 were obtained through a flux method followed by deintercalation of sodium. The Na0.5CoO2 samples were found to be vulnerable to water in the air and a hydration process in which H2O molecules fill oxygen vacancies in CoO2 layers is suggested to be responsible for the unusual vulnerability to water. The transport properties, including resistivity (ρ), thermopower (S ...
متن کاملProton transfer reaction rate constants between hydronium ion (H3O ) and volatile organic compounds
We report proton transfer reaction rate constants between the hydronium ion (H3O ) and selected atmospherically important volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The quantum chemical method was used to determine the structures of the organic species employing the density function theory-B3LYP. The ion–molecule reaction rates were determined using the average-dipole-orientation theory, along with the...
