Dilute Aqueous Solutions

Perturbed very dilute aqueous solutions are investigated by analyzing their electric conductivity (χ). Foci include titrations and quasi-periodic oscillations of χ spanning several months. The χ data reflect persistent dissipative supramolecular self-organization. This paper's successful consistent explanations of the χ measurements corroborate earlier quantum field theoretical predictions. For example: (1) Permanent polarization results from quantum electro-dynamical interactions mediated auto-ordering of water molecules and molecular aggregates which have electric dipole moments. (2) The aggregates are created by exciting very dilute aqueous solutions, generating long lasting (cold) vortices in crystalline-like-structured super-fluidic domains. These domains are only present when the concentration (C) is lower than a solute dependent transitions concentration (C trans ). Typically, C trans is of the order of 10-4 M or below.
