21. Throughout this paper, a sign convention is assumed in which Q represents the electrostatic potential exerted on the ion from the solvent (that is opposite to the convention in Ref. 14).

23. We consider here the interionic distances large enough so that there is a significant number of solvent molecules around each ion. This permits us to describe the dielectric continuum screening within the concept of a distance dependent dielectric permeability.
