Abstract

A Monte Carlo method for obtaining the solvent-averaged interionic potential of mean force is described. The potential of mean force is obtained for two charged hard spheres immersed in a dipolar hard sphere solvent. The ions and solvent particles have the same hard sphere diameters and the ions bear single charges of opposite sign. The solvent particles are characterized by a reduced dipole moment μ*=1.0 which corresponds to a dielectric constant ε?7.8. The Monte Carlo result is compared with the ’’primitive model’’ and other approximations which have been suggested for the potential of mean force. These approximations are all found to be inadequate for small ionic separations. Some implications with respect to ’’ion pairing’’ are mentioned.

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.
