Coexistence and criticality in size-asymmetric hard-core electrolytes
Liquid-vapor coexistence curves and critical parameters for hard-core 1:1 electrolyte models with diameter ratios lambda = sigma(-)/sigma(+) = 1 to 5.7 have been studied by fine-discretization Monte Carlo methods. Normalizing via the length scale sigma(+/-) = 1 / 2(sigma(+)+sigma(-)), relevant for the low densities in question, both T(*)(c) ( = k(B)T(c)sigma(+/-)/q(2)) and rho(*)(c) ( = rho(c)s...
متن کاملUniversality of ionic criticality: size- and charge-asymmetric electrolytes.
Grand-canonical simulations designed to resolve critical universality classes are reported for z:1 hard-core electrolyte models with diameter ratios lambda=a+/a- less than or approximately equal 6. For z=1 Ising-type behavior prevails. Unbiased estimates of Tc(lambda) are within 1% of previous (biased) estimates but the critical densities are approximately 5% lower. Ising character is also esta...
متن کاملAsymmetric primitive-model electrolytes: Debye-Hückel theory, criticality, and energy bounds.
Debye-Hückel (DH) theory is extended to treat two-component size- and charge-asymmetric primitive models, focusing primarily on the 1:1 additive hard-sphere electrolyte with, say, negative ion diameters a(--) larger than the positive ion diameters a(++). The treatment highlights the crucial importance of the charge-unbalanced "border zones" around each ion into which other ions of only one spec...

متن کاملPhase transitions in 2:1 and 3:1 hard-core model electrolytes.
Critical temperatures, T(c), densities, rho(c), and coexistence curves for 2:1 and 3:1 hard-core model electrolytes have been found by fine-discretization Monte Carlo simulation. The size ratio of + and - ions strongly affects T(c) and rho(c); the trends contradict most current theories. Large multivalent ions screened by small monovalent counterions exhibit normal gas-liquid transitions of dir...
