Dependence of the thermodynamic stability of the solvated electron in binary liquid solutions on thermodynamic solution stability prior to electron injection

Relationships between deviations from E/sub lambda max/, the photon energy at the wavelength of maximum absorption intensity, from the composition weighted average value and corresponding deviations of the enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy of mixing from those of an ideal solution were examined for all binary liquid solutions for which requisite data are available. No systematic correlations were found between the excess equimolar shift and the enthalpy or entropy of mixing at room temperature. (U.S.)
