Attraction of iodide ions by the free water surface, revealed by simulations with a polarizable force field based on drude oscillators
(2005)Recent theoretical and experimental studies have shown that polarizable anions, such as iodide and bromide, preferentially accumulate close to the surface of electrolyte solutions. This finding is in sharp contrast to the ...
