    Refill the container with ions that are below the optimal concentration.
    
    This function optionally checks if the concentration of ions in the solution is within an acceptable 
    range of the optimal concentration. If specified, it skips ions that are within the acceptable deviation 
    and refills only those that are below the optimal concentration.

    Parameters:
        concentration_of_ions (dict[str, float]): A dictionary containing the concentration of ions in the solution.
        optimal_ion_concentrations (dict[str, float]): A dictionary containing the optimal concentration of ions in the solution.
        *args (float): A list of acceptable maximum percentage deviations from the optimal concentration of ions in the solution.

    Returns:
        dict[str, float]: A dictionary containing the ions and the quantities to add to the solution.
