specific adsorption

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.S05791
Ions become specifically adsorbed when short-range interactions between them and the @I03118@ become important. They are believed then to penetrate into the inner layer and may (but not necessarily) come into contact with the surface. They are usually assumed to form a partial or complete @M04015@.
