Abstract

A quasi-continuum model for liquid water has been developed which is characterized by long range order structural effects. A solute is considered as a structure regulating center, as the hydrogen bonds in its immediate environment are shorter than in the more remote areas. In “pure” water the role of mobile holes, which are partly occupied by dissolved gases, such as N2, O2 and CO2, is emphasized.
