Evidence for the Heaviest Expected Halide Species in Aqueous Solution, At–, by Electromobility Measurements
10.1021/acs.inorgchem.7b03003 2018-04-13 At– (astatide) is commonly expected to be the heaviest halide in the halogen group. However, there is no proof for the existence of this −1 charged species. Furthermore, investigations with astatine are restricted by its specific radioactive properties, which... |
