The authors gave formation constants for NpBr 2+ (log 10 β 1 =−(3.39 ± 0.06)) <strong>and</strong> NpBr + 2(log 10 β 2 =−(6.48 ± 0.05)). These very negative valuesfor the formation constants correspond to the complexation <strong>of</strong> only about 1% <strong>of</strong>Np(III) at the highest bromide concentration used in the experiment, which was probablybarely detectable. Also, the ionic strength effects are expected to be considerableunder these conditions. An extrapolation to I = 0 is not possible due to the lack <strong>of</strong>
