Distribution of ions in electrolyte solutions and plasmas. Part 2.

Abstract

Using methods developed in Part 1, the plasma coefficients (H⁽ⁿ⁾_ji) of the binary distribution function for ions in a dilute solution are determined to the order ε³ for symmetrical and ε² for unsymmetrical electrolytes. Only in the limit t→ 0 is the Kirkwood Superposition principle rigorous to the first order in ε. Where t is finite. F_ijk=F_jiF_jkF_ik{1 +[z_iz_jG^V3(x)+z_jz_kG^V2(x₁₃)+z_iz_kG^V1(x₂₃)]ε+(ε²)}, where G^V₂, G^V₃ and G^V₁ arise from exclusion volume effects.
