Virial expansion for ionic mixtures: Point-counterion model

Silver, Silver Compounds, and Silver Alloys

“…Structure [1,15,16] From ancient times to the Middle Ages and later, even into the present century, silver was the classic metal for currency. In comparison, gold played an almost insignificant role.…”

“…This was known as the Ziervogel process, and for almost 100 years most of the silver in German ores was extracted in this way. The sulfuric acid extraction of dead-burnt copper ore in a stream of air (see page 16), to form a silvercontaining slime, was used for only a short period. After 1856, thiosulfate leaching (see Section 4.1.4) idized roasted ore was used primarily in Mexico and California.…”

A modified Poisson-Boltzmann approach to homogeneous ionic solutions

“…Neglecting the fluctuation potentials in equation (19) gives a symmetric mean field radial distribution function, and from equation (9) the corresponding set of symmetric PB (SPB) equations [16] The linear form of equation (20) can be solved for a single PM electrolyte, species p and q say, when ψ [17,18]. For r 2a qq , with a p a q ,…”
