It is possible that distortion of atomic orbitals by the additional
electronic charge will reduce the shielding of nuclear charge by the
bound electrons around atoms. As the shielding decreases, the
positive charge 'felt' by negative charges on the surface would
increase. Would reduced shielding contribute significantly to the
'bond' between the surface and excess charge?
