Preferred Label : area of interface;
IUPAC definition : In all measurements it is desirable that quantities like the charge and the capacity
be related to unit, true, surface area of the interface. While this is relatively
simple for a liquid-liquid interface, there are great difficulties when one phase
is solid. In any report of these quantities it is essential to give a clear statement
as to whether they refer to the true or the apparent (geometric) area and, especially
if the former is used, precisely how it was measured.;
