Offer a rationalization why the Bjerrum length is inversely porportional to temperature?
Kwon8741
The Bjerrum length is the separation distance at which the potential electric energy of two elementary charges is equal to kB*T.
The electric potential energy of two elementary charges is inversely proportional to their separation distance.
Since kB*T is trivially proportional to temperature T, at a higher temperature you need to place two elementary charges closer to each other to get the electric potential energy equal to kB*T.
As the separation distance between those charges is defined as the Bjerrum length, the Bjerrum length is inversely proportional to temperature.
