液体水中自由oH的确认对理解液体水的微观结构非常重要.通过随温度变化的水的拉曼光谱分析其相对强度的变化及退偏比,发现了自由-OH存在的直接证据,结果显示虽然液体水从5℃到85℃结构发生明显变化,但是自由-OH的含量几乎不变,且含量非常少,约为3%.这表明了氢键从四氢键形式断裂时更容易发生在氢键受体部位.
The molecular structure of liquid water has been an outstanding issue for many years. The identification of free -OH holds the key in differentiating structure models for liquid water. By analyzing the relative changes of the intensity and depolarization ratio in temperature dependent Raman spectra, the occurrence of free -OH in liquid water is unambiguously de- termined. Furthermore, upon the increase of temperature from 5 ~C to 85 ~C, the structure of liquid water undergoes significant change, but the relative proportion of free -OH is con- siderably small and remains almost unchanged. This implies that the breaking of hydrogen bond from the tetrahedral structure prefers to The energetic favoring of the structural change experiments. occur at the site of the hydrogen acceptor. for liquid water is thus clearly revealed from
