  "term": "Ionizing power",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A quantitative measure of a solvent's ability to promote the formation of ions from a covalent substrate. It reflects the solvent's capacity to stabilize separated charges and facilitate charge development in a reaction transition state. This property is often correlated with solvent polarity scales, such as the Dimroth-Reichardt ET parameter.",
