Abstract
We suggest that the authors compare their theoretical Gibbs free energies −ΔGhyd (kcal/mol) Li+, 128(1), 135; Cl−, 78(1), 70(2); and Ag+, 120(1) to recent absolute experimental values Li+, 128; Cl−, 74; and Ag+, 119 kcal/mol referenced to that for H+, 266(2) kcal/mol. We present bulk Gibbs hydration free energies and ionic radii for other ions from aqueous electron affinities, monohydration free energies, and diatomic halogen anion potential energy curves consistent with the Born dielectric constant, 3.4, for electrons and protons.
