Abstract

A theory of nucleation on ions and a theory of nucleation in the presence of ions are presented. The calculated data obtained within these theories are compared to the experimental data for the nucleation of vapors of different compounds. It is shown that the theory of nucleation in the presence of ions is in better agreement with the experimental data than the theory of nucleation on ions. It is assumed within the theory of nucleation in the presence of ions that each ion in the vapor phase forms a stable ion associate with vapor molecules.
