Solvent Mixtures

by Yizhak Marcus

Solvent Mixtures Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Compiling, comparing, and analyzing research from a wide range of abstracts, journal articles, and Web sites, this reference examines the properties, function, and behavior of binary, ternary, and multicomponent mixtures in the presence and absence of solutes. The author uniformly presents extensive data on the properties of solvent mixtures and describes their structures and interactions. He details the impact of preferential solvation on the environment, action, and components of chemical systems. The book highlights experimental approaches to determine when, and to what extent, preferential solvation has taken place and models for organic, ionic, macromolecular, and biochemical solutes.

Book News Annotation:

Summarizes data on the properties, function, and behavior of mixtures with two, three, or more components in both the presence and absence of solutes. Marcus (emeritus, Hebrew University of Jerusalem) begins with the physical, thermodynamic, and chemical properties of binary solvent mixtures, then explains diffraction, computer simulation, and spectroscopic methods for determining the structure of mixtures. The second half of the book focuses on binary solvent mixtures without extraneous solutes, ternary mixtures of a binary mixed solvent with an additional foreign solute, and multi-component liquid systems. The parameters of preferential solvation and the use of chemical probes are highlighted.
