✦ Synopsis
The interfacial properties of two hydrous oxides of manganese, namely an amorphous variety and a poorly crystalline synthetic birnessite, in different electrolyte media, have been studied by using a batch potentiometric titration procedure with a 72-h equilibration period. The data obtained by this procedure are more relevant to a natural water system than those obtained by the rapid titration method as reported earlier [J. Colloid Interface Sci. 131, 103 (1989).]. Although the points of zero charge do not show any major variations, the surface dissociation and complexation (with Na + in NaCl) constants differ with the method of titration. Both of the samples are characterized by their high surface charge (low pK a ) and surface potential, and as a result, complexation takes place possibly within the inner helmholtz plane. It is concluded that the triple-layer model is not applicable to this colloid system and that a basic Stern model would be more suitable in this case.

## Abstract The study of the structure of the electrode–solution interface usually involves the measurement of the differential capacity–potential characteristics of the system. In order to obtain the double‐layer parameters from these data, integration and differentiation procedures are required a
X-Ray standing wave (XSW) measurements were made of Rb and Sr adsorbed from aqueous solutions at the rutile (110)-water interface. These experiments were performed to address the extent to which direct measurements of electrical double-layer structure are possible. The experimental results show that
