Hard and Soft Acid-Base Behavior in Aqueous Solution: Steric Effects

The idea of hard and Soft Acids and Bases (HSAB), developed by R. G. Pearson some 30 years ago, has been used as a unifying principle in several texts. In spite of this, HSAB has remained qualitative and largely intuitive. In this article, the behavi
