A Theory of Water and Ionic Solution, with Particular Reference to Hydrogen and Hydroxyl Ions

Bernal, J. D., Fowler, R. H.·1933·The Journal of Chemical Physics

Abstract

On the basis of the model of the water molecule derived from spectral and x-ray data and a proposed internal structure for water, the following properties of water and ionic solutions have been deduced quantitatively in good agreement with experiment. (1) The crystal structure of ice. (2) The x-ray diffraction curve for water. (3) The total energy of water and ice. (4) The degree of hydration of positive and negative ions in water. (5) The heat of solutions of ions. (6) The mobility of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in water. And the following inferred in a qualitative way. (7) The density and density changes of water. (8) The explanation of the unique position of water among molecular liquids. (9) The dielectric properties of water and ice. (10) The viscosities of dilute ionic solutions. (11) The viscosities of concentrated acids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
