  1. a μ + bath = μ - atom =- 3 I M + A M 4-3 I M 4 because of the neglectable values of electron affinities, AM, for atoms. b μ+ and η+ are obtained from Equation 3a. c The product of the charge number, z, and the absolute reduction potential, E°abs. The values of E°abs are calculated form Equation 18 where the absolute standard hydrogen electrode potential, E°SHE = 0, is 4.263 eV according to Marcus [21].
