Mineral dissolution/precipitation To determine whether or not a water is saturated with an aluminosilicate such as K-feldspar, we could write a dissolution.
Soil OM is 50-65% C, so we use 57.5% SOM x = OC and SOM = OC/0.575 e.g., how much SOM do you have with 2% OC? SOM = 2% ÷ = 3.5% or 2% ÷ 0.50.

Why we study hydroxide nano-particles? Form coatings: meta-stable mixtures of Fe-, Al- and Si oxides and organics, which:  Affect mobility of nutrients and contaminants  Reflect soil-forming processes  Affect mineral dissolution rates  Have large reactive surface area  Create pH- dependent charge

 Slow titration rate (0.1 ml/min)  Dyalisis to remove salts and excess Al Fe (+Al) nitrate sol-n, pH ~2 0.1 M KOH Experimental conditions: [Fe+Al] = 10 mM; %Al: 0, 10, 25, 30, 50, 75, 100; pH = 5

Measured by light scattering (ZetaPALS, Brookhaven Instruments) 0% Al 30% Al AFM images of Fe-Al particles

What methods to use? X-ray diffraction (XRD):  long range order information  synchrotron XRD for poorly crystalline hydroxides  only crystalline phase Extended X-ray Absorption Fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS)  short range order (atom’s second neighbor information – bond distance, type of bond))  both crystalline and amorphous  Can only probe for Fe, not Al Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (ATR FTIR)  short range order (bonding and reactivity of protons)  both crystalline and amorphous  distinct iron and Al hydroxide OH-vibrations  ATR technique provide precise technique: measures nano-particles coatings on the sensor (do not need to separate nano-particles by centrifugation and freeze-drying)
