Cartoon of a multimer dissociating symmetrically vs. asymmetrically with ion pairs. The asymmetric process is drawn assuming that only heterolytic ion pair cleavages create the charge asymmetry. Should charge migration also contribute, the number of heterolytically cleaved ion pairs spanning interfaces would be reduced.
