Partial charge transfer reaction

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-008481",
  "term": "Partial charge transfer reaction",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A reaction between an ion and a neutral species in which a multiply charged reactant ion has its charge reduced, as when a doubly charged ion captures one electron and becomes singly charged. Each transfer moves a whole electron, so the charge falls in integer steps. Partial charge exchange is a synonym for the same process.",
