Variables
Functions
First Stability Constant
First Stability Constant is an equilibrium constant for the formation of a metal ligand complex.
Symbol: k1
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Formation Factor for Complexation
Formation Factor for Complexation is the ratio of the total concentration of the ligand bound to the metal ion to the total concentration of the metal ion.
Symbol: nfactor
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
pH of Ligand
pH of Ligand is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution equal to the common logarithm of the reciprocal of the concentration of Ligands in moles per cubic decimetre of solution.
Symbol: pL
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
log10
The common logarithm, also known as the base-10 logarithm or the decimal logarithm, is a mathematical function that is the inverse of the exponential function.
Syntax: log10(Number)
