Supramolecular physics of ambient water

Abstract

In temperature range from 0 C to 100 C, abnormality of ambient water properties, at normal pressure, are mainly defined by the physic of hydrogen bonds in supramolecular structures (SMS). Application of Arrhenius approximations and modification of temperature dependences (TDs) for 15 physical characteristics of water made it possible to define their activation energies and to differentiate the contributions of equilibrium thermal processes and those of SMS reconfigurations. Reactions of hydrogen bonds breakage and those of hexagonal ice-like clusters transformation limit TDs of viscosity and rotation-translational self-diffusion. Limitation of degrees of freedom of these motions by the effect of anisotropic external factors leads to the reduction of activation energy for TDs of compressibility, sound velocity and thermal conductivity nearly sixfold. Equality of absolute values of activation energies, having opposite signs, for the thermal and configurational components of TDs, in its point of extremum, is the condition of TDs extrema for volumetric density, heat capacity at constant pressure, compressibility and sound velocity. In this case, space time correlation of water dynamics takes place on the supramolecular level, followed by constant-energy transition between metastable SMS phases.
