TLDR
In this paper, the difference in the values of the differential real potential for the anion and cation is identified with the surface potential of the pure solvent, and it is shown that the difference of ‘chemical’ solvation energy of these large alternant hydrocarbon ions should be close to zero.

The absolute electrode potential: an explanatory note (Recommendations 1986)

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that in principle three reference levels can be chosen to measure an absolute value of the electrode potential, and a thermodynamic analysis of the components of the emf of an elec- trochemical cell is shown.

Single-Ion Solvation Free Energies and the Normal Hydrogen Electrode Potential in Methanol, Acetonitrile, and Dimethyl Sulfoxide

TL;DR: In this paper, the relative solvation free energies of ions and ion−solvent clusters in methanol, acetonitrile, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) have been determined using a combination of experimental and theoretical gas-phase free energies, solution-phase reduction potentials and acid dissociation constants.

The Solvation of Acetonitrile

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the properties of acetonitrile dissolved in 33 solvents, focusing on interpretation of the environment-sensitive solvent shift, Δν, of its CN stretch frequency, ν2.

The ionic work function and its role in estimating absolute electrode potentials.

TL;DR: A comparison of the ionic work function with the absolute Gibbs solvation energy permits an estimation of the surface potential of the solvent, and the results show that thesurface potential of water is small and positive whereas the surface Potential of the nonaqueous solvents considered is negative.

Exothermic rate restrictions on electron transfer in a rigid medium

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that electron tunneling reactions between trapped electrons and 48 organic electron acceptors in rigid 2-methyltetrahydrofuran glass at 77 K were observed from 10−6 to 102 s and measured tunneling distances were 15-40 A in most cases the o

Polarographic Oxidation Potentials of Aromatic Compounds

TL;DR: In this article, the oxidation half-wave potentials of fifty-three organic compounds were determined in acetonitrile at a rotating Pt electrode, and these values were correlated with ionization potentials, with interaction energies of charge transfer complexes with trinitrofluorenone, with Huckel coefficients of the resonance integral in the expression for the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level, and with pabsorption band spectra.

Surface structure of water and ice

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface structure of water and ice is reconsidered in the light of new theoretical information on the quadrupole moment of the water molecule and on the structure of liquid water, and it is concluded that the principal mechanism driving molecular orientation at a liquid water surface is the interaction between molecular dipole and quadrupoles in the partially oriented region near the surface.
