Abstract
New results of experiments on nonlinear laser photoacoustics, nonlinear infrared spectroscopy, and Raman scattering of water are presented. It has been found that the liquid water should be considered as a sufficiently inhomogeneous liquid. The solvation water shells around ions can play the role of inhomogeneities. It has been experimentally established that there is a positive feedback between electrolytic dissociation and solvation shell formation. A model considering the kinetics of two water structures (H-network structure and solvation shell structure) is proposed. It was shown that many features of this model are similar to that of the well-known “chemical clock” model. It has been shown that this model explains some water “anomalies” as well as new experimental facts.
