A new physicochemical model of metal complexation by humic substances is described. The model takes into account the effects of double layer relaxation, chemical bond formation, and the increase in entropy associated with metal dehydration. In the case of the double layer thermodynamics, mathematical models, which may be used to calculate the enthalpic, entropic and total free energy contributions to the complexation reaction are formulated. The contribution of chemical bond formation to the enthalpy of reaction is investigated by comparison with simple ligand reaction enthalpies. In the case of the entropic contribution of metal dehydration, partial molar entropies were found to give the best measure. Binding enthalpies and entropies for Eu3+ and UO22+ with Aldrich humic acid have been determined: ΔH(Eu)=+36 kJ mol−1; ΔS(Eu)=+276 J K−1 mol−1; ΔH(UO22+)=+62 kJ mol−1; ΔS(UO22+)=+62 J K−1 mol−1. In addition, the effect of ionic strength on the binding of Cu and Cd has been studied electrochemically. Using these data, combined with data from the literature, the model has been tested, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The suitability of the model for the prediction of unknown humic/metal complexation enthalpies, entropies and total binding strengths is discussed.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
