What causes a decrease in the free energy of activation required for the forward process of dissolution?
Edgardo Anibal Disalvo
the process of dissolution is composed of two steps:
a first one endothemric that correspond the lattuce energy ie the energy involved in taking one ion from the lattice to the vapor phase.
the other is the process of solvation of the ion in gas phase or in a hole in lattice of the solveny.
In terms of kinetics this could be affected by al the factors that may affect the steps in taking the io from the crsytla laatuce to the gas that is.
sublimation- disocciation- ionization. the point is to look for which physcal forces can catalized one or all of them I imagin that electric field could affect ionization, the others I dont know.
