Conteúdo: | A study of the distribution of electric charges in the A and B horizons of some Oxisols, Alfisols and a Mollisol from Brasil was made by direct measurement of retention of ions in the presence of varying electrolyte concentration. Sample of an Oxisol, Ultisol, and an Alfisol were also used for ion-exchange studies by means of a saturation-displacement procedure. With the exception of the Mollisol, where the surface potential could be visualized as being of the variable type, the electrochemical behavior of the soils was found to be similar to that of the constant potential systens ub which the surface potential is determined by H+ and oH- ions in the equilibrium solution; hence charge distribution varied substantially with pH and electrolyte concentration. The concentration effect was not as pronounced as the pH effect and in some cases was not statistically significant. Direct measurement of adsorption of ions from MgSO4, MgC12, K2SO4, KC1, and Nac1 showed that the nature and valence of the counter ion also influenced the magnitude of the eletric charges on the soil particles. However, with respect to K the changes in charge were due to anion effects not cation effects, suggesting a strong affinity of K for the soil materials. The ZPC of the soils determined by plotting the net charges against pH varied from 1.2 to 3.4 in the A horizons and from 4.0 to 6.1 in the B horizons. lThe surface horizons of the soils were, in general, net negatively charged at or near their field pH. This fact was found to be.............
