AI Article Synopsis

  • The study calculated the theoretical mean molar electrostriction volume of various electrolytic solvents using their density, compressibility, and permittivity properties.
  • It defined the molar electrostriction for ions in such solvents by analyzing the differences between their standard partial molar volumes and intrinsic volumes.
  • The research also established ratios to quantify solvation numbers and solvent molecule release during ion interactions, creating a comprehensive table for available solvents, ions, and ion pairs, and extending the analysis to nonaqueous solvents.

Article Abstract

The theoretical mean molar electrostriction volume of electrolytic solvents, DeltaVel(solvent), was calculated from their properties: the relative pressure derivatives of the density (the compressibility) and permittivity and their second pressure derivatives. The molar electrostriction caused by ions at infinite dilution was taken as the differences of their standard partial molar volumes in the solution and their intrinsic volumes: DeltaVel(ion) = Vinfinity(ion) - Vin(ion). The ratio ninfinity = DeltaVel(ion)/DeltaVel(solvent) then represents the solvation number of the ion in the solvent at infinite dilution. Similarly, from the molar volume change on ion pair formation, DeltaVip, the ratio Deltanip = DeltaVip/DeltaVel(solvent) represents the number of solvent molecules released thereby. These values were tabulated for those solvents, ions, and ion pairs for which the relevant information could be found, the extension to nonaqueous solvents not having been attempted previously.

The importance of electrolyte solutions cannot be overstated. Beyond the ionic strength of electrolyte solutions the specific nature of the ions present is vital in controlling a host of properties. Therefore ion specificity is fundamentally important in physical chemistry, engineering and biology.

The diminution of the mean molar volume on electrostriction, ΔelVS, in the large electrical field of ions solvated by several solvents that are useful for the dissolution of electrolytes is presented. The solvents dealt with are ethanol, trifluoroethanol, 1,2- and 1,3-propanediols, glycerol, 2-butanone, 1,1- and 1,2-dichloroethane, pyridine, benzonitrile, nitromethane, nitrobenzene, formamide, and dimethylformamide. The inverse dependence of the relative molar electrostriction volume on the dipole moment of the solvents is suggestive of the fact that the larger the polarity of the solvents, the more they are able to withstand the compressive effect of the electrical field.

Highly Efficient Electrohydrodynamic Pumping: Molecular Isomer Effect of Dielectric Liquids, and Surface States of Electrodes.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

Department of Materials Science and Engineering, National Defense Academy , Yokosuka 239-8686, Japan.

Highly efficient electrohydrodynamic (EHD) pumping was obtained by a combination of a dielectric liquid having a molecular isomer and electrodes with a smooth surface. Four kinds of surface states of Cu electrodes were processed by conventional mechanical polishing, fine diamond paste polishing, chemical etching and Au vapor deposition. A series of hydrofluoroether liquids (HFEs) were used as dielectric liquids: C3F7OCH3 (HFE-7000), C4F9OCH3 (HFE-7100), C4F9OC2H5 (HFE-7200), C6F13OCH3 (HFE-7300), and C5H5F6OC3HF6 (HFE-7600).

Partial molar volumes and partial molar compressibilities of aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 1-hexanol at pressure up to 140 MPa have been determined. For aqueous SDS solutions the partial molar compressibility increases with pressure below the cmc and decreases with pressure above the cmc. The partial molar compressibility of aqueous 1-hexanol increases with pressure.
