. Can. J. Chem. 59, 1969Chem. 59, (1981. The hydration of solid particles in aqueous solution is treated as a patchwise phenomenon, in which the orientation of water dipoles varies in a patchwise fashion along the surface. The idea is applied to the AgI system where besides the neutral surface Ag+ patches and I-patches are distinguished. A first-order elaboration is offered, including an analysis of the relation between overall macroscopic quantities and local properties. The model offers an interpretation of two characteristics of double layers on silver iodide: the asymmetry of its p.2.c. and the conspicuous capacitance rise on the positive side and may serve as a starting point for a better description of the typical differences between the double layers on AgI and Hg.ARIE DE KEIZER et JOHANNES LYKLEMA. Can. J. Chem. 59, 1969 (1981. On considtre I'hydratation des particules solides en solution aqueuse comme un phenomtne impliquant des blocs dans lesquels I'orientation des dipBles de I'eau varie avec les blocs presents a la surface. On a applique ce concept a un systtme de AgI dans lequel en plus du bloc neutre, on peut distinguer des blocs de Ag+ et d'autres de I-. On presente une etude approfondie de premier ordre comportant une analyse de la relation entre les quantites macroscopiques globales et les proprietes locales. Le modele propose une interpretation pour deux caracteristiques de la couche double sur I'iodure d'argent: I'asymetrie de son c.2.p. et I'augmentation manifeste de la capacite de la partie positive; ce modtle peut servir de point de depart pour une meilleure description des differences caracteristiques entre les couches doubles sur AgI et Hg.[

The first category encompasses the other) dipoles near a phase boundary remains one of main body of what has hitherto been studied, but the most difficult problems of interfacial electro-here we intend to emphasize the second. "Interfacial chemistry, The majority of models refer to the hydration" is interpreted here in the general sense metal-water interface. The statemofmart in this field aS including all variations of the properties of water has been covered in an excellent review by Trasatti due to an adjacent phase, including those near water-(1). However, it is questionable whether the results rejecting surfaces, giving rise to hydrophobic obtained for metal-water interfaces are of immediate applicability to non-rnetal solid-water interfaces, asIn this paper we will emphasize the orientational occurring in many disperse systems.
