Description
Summary:The molecular structure of water is considered and a simple order-disorder theory is given. This theory shows aspects both of the theory of Lennard-Jones and Pople and of that of Némethy and Scheraga. The theories are compared in Table I. The molecular structure of water near a dissolved ion is briefly discussed. Concerning two ions, structural changes of the water molecules can lead to a contribution to the potential energy, which must be interpreted as a repulsion. A comparison is made of this repulsive contribution with the “hydrophobic bond” formation as discussed by Némethy and Scheraga.
