ABSTRACTThe molecular dynamics computer simulation technique has been used to study silicic acid and pyrosilicic acid molecules (H4 SiO4 and H6 Si 2 O7, respectively). The structure of the simulated molecules are compared to those found by molecular orbital calculations as well as structures inferred from silicate hydrates. The potentials used to simulate the molecules were also used in simulations of bulk silicates and compared with experimental data. Results indicate good correlation.
