Chemical reactions generally take place in solution and often involve ions. The behaviour of ions in solution, manifested through ion solvation, is therefore of

The book starts with an exposition of the relevant properties of ions and continues with a description of their solvation in the gas phase. The book contains a

Solvation, Ionic and Complex Formation Reactions in Non-Aqueous Solvents: Experimental Methods for their Investigation presents the available methods and their

Molecular Theory of Solvation presents the recent progress in the statistical mechanics of molecular liquids applied to the most intriguing problems in chemistr

Ions are ubiquitous in chemical, technological, ecological and biological processes. Characterizing their role in these processes requires in the first place th
