[ noun ] (physics,electricity) having a surplus of electrons; having a lower electric potential
Used in print (Jay C. Harris and John R. Van Wazer, "Detergent...)From the equilibrium sorption data which are available , it seems logical to expect that polyphosphate ions would be strongly sorbed on the surface of the dirt ( especially clay soils ) so as to give it a greatly increased negative_charge . The charged particles then repel each other and are also repelled from the charged surface , which almost invariably bears a negative_charge under washing conditions . Related terms |
