The Debye–Hückel theory is a theoretical framework developed to describe the behavior of electrolyte solutions, particularly the interactions between ions in a solution. Formulated by Peter Debye and Erich Hückel in the early 20th century, the theory provides a way to account for the activities of ions in dilute solutions, which helps to understand how ions behave in the presence of each other.
