Complementary Eigen–Zundel Interpretation Reconciles Thermodynamics and Spectroscopy of Excess Protons in Aqueous HF Solutions

ABSTRACT Aqueous solutions of HF and HCl behave very differently at intermediate concentrations: HCl dissociates completely, whereas HFonly partially dissociates and forms bifluoride (). This should lead to markedly different excess‐proton spectra in HF and HCl solutions, in cont...
