^aDetermination of the maximum hydrodynamic diameter (max. dia.) was made regardless of the salt concentration at which the maximum size occurred. In the event of a bimodal distribution, the mode that accounted for >10% of the total distribution and had the largest diameter was used to determine max. dia. ^bValues are the average of two datasets. ^cFor solubility reasons titrations with LiF were not performed. ^dValues are the average of three or more datasets.
