The mean dipole moment of the water molecules in contact with a monovalent ion is estimated. The first hydration shell of a spherical ion is assumed to contain either four or six coordinated water molecules, while the water molecules outside this shell are replaced by a continuous medium whose dielectric constant is that corresponding to bulk water at 25 °C. It is found that the dipole moment induced in the attached water molecules is comparable with its permanent dipole moment.

A large breath of clathrate-like cages has been proposed as the very first hydration shell of alkanes. The cages include canonical structures commonly found in clathrate hydrates and many others,...

Indications from a molecular dynamics simulation of a 2.2 molal LiI solution of the existence of a second hydration shell of Li+ have been checked by an x-ray investigation of the same solution. The scattering data are analysed via partial structure functions and radial distribution functions which have been obtained from a model fitted to the total structure function. Experiment and simulation agree on first neighbor ion-water distances. An octahedral arrangement of six water molecules in the first hydration shell of Li+ and additional twelve water molecules in the second shell have been verified by the experiment.

Abstract A molecular dynamics simulation of a 2.2 molal aqueous CsF solution has been performed employing the ST2 water model. The basic periodic cube with a sidelength of 18.50 Å contained 200 water molecules, and 8 ions of each kind, corresponding to an experimental density of 1.26 g/cm3. The simulation extended over 6.5 ps with an average temperature of 307 K. The structure of the solution is discussed by means of radial distribution functions and the orientation of the water molecules. The computed hydration numbers in the first shell of Cs+ and F- are 7.9 and 6.8, respectively; the corresponding first hydration shell radii are 3.22 A and 2.64 A, respectively. Values for the hydration shell energies and the heat of solution have been calculated.

Abstract The self-diffusion of Na+, Et4N+ and I- in mixtures of water with n-propanol at 25 °C and with lert-butanol at 30 °C was measured as function of salt concentration and solvent composition. The limiting self-diffusion coefficients of the ions were used to compute the ionic radii. The influence of the composition of the solvent on the solvation of the ions is discussed. In aqueous solutions of both alcohols the effective ionic radii are reduced. The strongest influence is found for the same solvent composition for which the highest concentration of the alcohol clusters has been reported. Hydra-tion of the clusters of n-propanol causes a vanishing of the second hydration shell of Na+ and the first one of Et4N+ and I-. In the case of terf-butanol even the first hydration shell of Na+ is partially reduced.
