Ion Hydration in Supercritical Water Ram B. Gupta and Keith P.Johnston' Department of Chemical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78712-1062

A molecular thermodynamic model is presented for the prediction of the chemical potential of a n ion in supercritical water, and also the standard free energy, internal energy, and entropy of hydration. The reference state consists of ion-water clusters in the gas phase at low pressure, containing integer numbers of water molecules from 1to 6. The chemical potentials of the ionwater clusters are examined as a function of t h e relevant intermolecular forces, i.e., van der Waals repulsive and attractive forces, hydrogen bonding between the clusters and additional water molecules in the bulk, and Born electrostatic solvation. The hydrogen bonding stabilizes an ion-water cluster to a much greater extent than it is destabilized by repulsive forces. Consequently, hydrogen bonding increases the mean hydration number and the effective Born

radius. Introduction Molecular models of the thermodynamic properties of ions in water at high temperatures and pressures are of interest in hydrothermal reactions, for example, supercritical water oxidation (Tester et al., 1993) and in steam power generation and geochemistry (Tanger and Pitzer, 1989a,b;Tanger and Helgeson, 1988; LeveltSengers, 1991). Ion solvation in supercritical water plays a n important role in solubility phenomena, ion mobility, equilibrium behavior for ion association reactions, and chemical kinetics. For example, specific interactions between water and transition states have large effects on energy barriers for reactions such as the water-gas shift reaction (Melius et al., 1990) and the decomposition of nitrobenzene (Melius, 1992). A better understanding of molecular interactions between water and solutes of varying polarity is greatly needed for describing solvent effects on chemical reactions in supercritical water, particularly ion association reactions (Mesmer et al., 1991). The number of water molecules about an ion can be measured precisely in the gas phase at low pressures with mass spectrometry. For example, hydration numbers from 1 t o 6 have been measured for alkali halide ions (Kebarle, 1977). We will refer to these hydrated ions as clusters. The concentrations of clusters with various stoichiometries have been measured over a wide range of temperatures to determine standard state (ideal gas) free energies, enthalpies, and entropies of hydration. Cluster properties lie between those of the gas and the bulk condensed states as a function of the number of water molecules in the cluster (Castleman and Keesee, 1986). Pitzer and co-workers have developed various models for the standard Gibbs free energy of hydration of ions at high temperatures and pressures (Pitzer, 1983; Pitzer and Pabalan, 1986). Recently, Tanger and Pitzer (1989a) developed a semicontinuum model for temperatures to 1000 "C and pressures to 5 kbar. The above thermodynamic data for gas phase clusters from mass spectrometry served as a convenient reference in the model. The effect of the excluded volume of the cluster on its chemical potential was treated by using an empirical effective volume increment per HzO of hydration. In the critical region, the unusual properties present a challenge for thermodynamic models. The density varies markedly with temperature and pressure, and the isothermal compressibility approaches infinity. Con-

sequently, the magnitudes of partial molar properties of ions, such as volumes, enthalpies, entropies and heat capacities, can be enormous compared with those in conventional liquids (Levelt Sengers, 1991; Wood et al., 1981). Large partial molar heat capacities of ions are observed in the range 700-1000 K, arising from the enthalpy of dissociation of water. Not only have macroscopic partial molar properties been studied but also the structure of supercritical fluid solutions has been characterized spectroscopically and with computer simulation, for fluids such as COz with critical temperatures near ambient (Kim and Johnston, 1987; Knutson et al., 1992; Munoz and Chimowitz, 1992; Sun et ai., 1992; Carlier and Randolph, 1993). FTIR spectroscopy is particularly useful for investigating how supercritical fluids influence hydrogen bonding, e.g., between methanol and triethylamine (Gupta et al., 1993) and perfluorotert-butyl alcohol and dimethyl ether (Kazarian et al., 1993). These data have been modeled successfully with a lattice fluid hydrogen-bonding model (LFHB) (Gupta and Johnston, 1994). Very few spectroscopic studies have examined solvation in supercritical water. Hydrogen bonding of water about acetone has been measured with W-visible spectroscopy, on the basis of spectral shifts in the n n* band of acetone (Bennett and Johnston, 1994). At 380 "C, hydrogen bonding persists a t a density of only 0.1 g/mL but rapidly disappears a t lower densities. Future spectroscopic studies of the structure of supercritical aqueous solutions are needed t o further test theoretical models; presently the models must be tested primarily with computer simulation. Because partial molar volumes are pronounced in supercritical fluids, activation volumes and volume changes for chemical reactions can be large. The effect of pressure on the redox potential of the I d - couple was measured in water from 230 to 300 bar at 385 "C. The resulting partial molar volume change for the reduction of 12 to I-, ADrxn, is pronounced because of the large isothermal compressibility of the solvent multiplied by the change in solute-solvent interactions upon reaction from a molecule to an ion (Flarsheim et al., 1989). A better understanding of ion solvation would aid the interpretation of these results. Another important consideration in modeling supercritical solutions is the effect of Lewis acid-base interactions, in particular hydrogen bonding. These interactions have been measured spectroscopically for many ions in ambient water, e.g., CH&OCH2-, Gd3+,

and F- (Meot-Ner, 1988; HeRer, 1991). Specific interactions have also been studied by molecular dynamics simulation for pure supercritical water (Mountain, 1989; Kalinichev and Heinzinger, 1992) and aqueous solutions containing ions (Cummings et al., 1991; Cochran et al., 1992; Cui and Harris, 1994). For TIP4P water, hydrogen bonding persists to supercritical temperatures from 1t o 0.1 g/mL, as evidenced by the maximum in &?OH a t 0.18 nm (Mountain, 1989; Kalinichev and Heinzinger, 1992). The hydrogen bonding persists despite the fact that the water structure resembles that of a simple liquid such as argon, on the basis ofgoo (Kalinichev and Heinzinger, 1992). The persistence of hydrogen bonding is also observed in predictions of a lattice fluid hydrogen bonding model (Gupta and Johnston, 19941, based on energy, entropy, and volume of hydrogen bonding parameters obtained from spectroscopic data a t subcritical conditions. These predictions are in good agreement with computer simulation (Mountain, 1989). The results for the vapor pressure of water are considerably better for an improved version of the LFHB model (Gupta and Johnston, 1994)than for the earlier version (Gupta et al., 1992). The improved version is mathematically very similar to the statistical association fluid theory (SAFT) model (Chapman et al., 19901, although there are large differences in the derivations of the models and subtle differences in the hydrogen-bonding parameters. An important advancement is the determination of the equilibrium structure of water molecules about Na+ and C1- ions a t two states near the critical point (Cummings et al., 1991; Cochran et al., 1992). The local density of water in the first solvation shell approaches that of liquid water a t ambient temperature. Very recently, Cui and Harris (1994) studied this system over a wide range of temperatures and densities and also considered ion association, which was found to be driven by the entropic contribution to the potential of mean force. Balbuena et al. (1994a,b) examined the solvation of species of varying polarity along the reaction coordinate for the Sp~2reaction of C1- and CH&1 from ambient water to SCW. The behavior of the free energy, energy, and entropy changes along the reaction coordinate was influenced by the hydrogen-bonding interactions with the various species. These simulation studies of pure water and aqueous solutions suggest that hydrogen bonding can play an important role even at supercritical temperatures. However, hydrogen bonding interactions have not been considered in thermodynamic free energy models for aqueous ionic solutions at supercritical temperatures. Our objective is to develop a molecular thermodynamic model to calculate the chemical potential of ions and the thermodynamic properties for ion hydration in supercritical water. Again, the reference state consists of ion-water clusters in an ideal gas for which experimental data are available. We wish to investigate the transition between an ion in a gas phase cluster and an ion in dense liquid-like water. We view the cluster as a single solute species and determine how it interacts with additional water as the bulk water density is varied from zero to “liquid-like’’densities. The physical part of our model includes van der Waals repulsive (excluded volume) and attractive forces. In addition, the hydrogen bonding is described with a recently developed lattice model (Gupta, 1993). The effects of each of these types of intermolecular forces will be examined in detail. The thermodynamic formalism of Tanger and Pitzer has

been adopted to define the standard free energy of hydration. The calculated results for the standard Gibbs free energy of hydration, mean hydration number, and Born radius will be compared with those of Tanger and Pitzer, and the importance of the various molecular interactions will be quantified. The Born radius will be regressed by forcing the model to agree with experimental data for the standard Gibbs free energy of hydration (Tanger and Helgeson, 1988; Tanger and Pitzer, 1989a,b). The mean hydration number will be compared with values from computer simulation.

Theory Chemical Potential of an Ion in a Cluster. The molecular thermodynamic model for the chemical potential of an ion in a cluster is described in Figure l . In this example, the solute is a cluster containing four water molecules about an ion. van der Waals repulsive forces destabilize the cluster due to excluded volume. van der Waals attractive forces stabilize the cluster since it is more polarizable than the anhydrous ion. In addition the cluster forms hydrogen bonds with additional water molecules. The purpose of this section is to write a free energy expression to describe these interactions. The molecular thermodynamic model is expressed in terms of the residual Helmholtz energy per mole, ares, defined as

areS(T,V,N) = a(T,VN - aig(T,V,N)

where a ( T , V N and a i g ( T , V N are the total and ideal gas values of the Helmholtz energy per mole at the same temperature and density. I t is assumed that the residual Helmholtz energy may be described by four terms ares

The expressions for the first three terms are the physical part of SAFT (Huang and Radosz, 1990,1991). The first term is given by a well-known equation for the repulsive forces for a mixture of hard spheres (Mansoori et al., 1971). The adisterm describes van der Waals mean field dispersion interactions between segments in the molecules. The achain term, which describes covalent chainforming bonds among segments, is not very important for small molecules such as water but is included anyway. The association term aassoc, which describes donor-acceptor interactions (e.g., hydrogen bonding) between segments, is derived from a modified version

Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., Vol. 33, No. 11, 1994 2821 of the hydrogen-bondingpartition function presented by Panayiotou and Sanchez (1991) in the LFHB model. The hydrogen-bonding contribution to the Helmholtz free energy is obtained from a partition function, by determining the number of ways of distributing the hydrogen bonds among the donor and acceptor groups in the system (Panayiotou and Sanchez, 1991). The donor and acceptor must be in close spatial proximity as described by a mean field probability. The probability that a specific acceptor will be near a given donor depends upon the system volume, the segment-segment correlation function, and the entropy loss (intrinsically negative) associated with the formation of a hydrogen bond. The general formalism is applicable for multicomponent systems of molecules having any number of hydrogen bond donor and acceptor groups and is applicable over a wide range in density. Further details concerning the free energy model are in the Appendix. The composition derivative of the free energy is used to determine the chemical potential of the ion, Pn, for the various values of hydration number n, analytically (Gupta, 1993). Given the chemical potential of the ion in the gas phase kg)and in a cluster, the ratio of fugacity coefficients (4) may immediately be written as

The subdivision of hydration free energy into innershell and outer-shell contributions is consistent with the widely used conceptual models proposed by Frank and Wen (1957) and Gurney (1953). The limit in inner-shell water molecules at six is consistent with experiment and simulation for alkali-metal ions (Chandrasekhar et al., 1984; Marcus, 1985). The inner-shell contribution is defined as (Tanger and Pitzer, 1989a,b)

The mole fractions of the clusters with various hydration numbers may be obtained from the molecular model according to eqs 6 and 3 and substituted into eq 9 to yield

Each pure molecule is described by three physical segment parameters (segment length, r; segment-segment interaction energy, u"/k;and segment volume, uoo). Each type of hydrogen bond is characterized by three association parameters: energy, E"; entropy, s";and volume, v". Two of the physical parameters, the segment length (r) and the segment interaction energy (uo/k),for the pure salts NaCl and KC1 were obtained from the pure liquid density and the normal boiling point (Kirshenbaum et al., 1962). The segment volume (v"") was set equal to 10 cc/mol, the value for water. A parameter in the SAFT model, e/k, was chosen as 1 for all species in the present study, as was recommended for water (Huang and Radosz, 1990). The other parameters are for NaC1, r = 1 and u"/k = 1667 K; for KC1, r = 1.05 and u"/k = 1667 K, and for water, r = 1.33 and u"/k = 218.8 K. The calculated and experimental values of the liquid density for NaCl and KC1 are in good agreement, as shown in Figure 2. The physical parameters for an ion, i, are estimated from corresponding electrolyte k parameters as follows rk =

To avoid adding any adjustable parameters, the value of r for Na' has been set equal to half of the r for NaCl and u"/k of Na+ has been set equal to that of NaC1. The parameters for the remaining of the ions have been evaluated by using eqs 14 and 15. The segment length parameter, r, is assumed to scale as the molecular weight ( M w )of the ion clusters as follows

The segment length parameters for electrolytes, ions, and ion clusters are listed in Table 2. The trends in r have physical meaning, although the values for the smaller Na+ clusters are low relative to that of pure water. This minor discrepancy would not be expected to have a large influence on the results. An anion-cluster with n water molecules is considered to have only 2n proton acceptor sites (two sites per oxygen atom of each water molecule), and a cationcluster is considered to have only 2n proton donor sites (one site per hydrogen atom of each water molecule). The hydrogen-bonding parameters (E", So, and VO) between a water molecule in a cluster and a bulk water molecule are considered to be the same as those for bulk

Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., Vol. 33, No. 11, 1994 2823 water, i.e., E" = -15466 J/mol; Sa = -15.65 J/mol/K; and V' = -0.97 cm3/mol (Gupta and Johnston, 1994). There is some justification for this assumption. Cochran et al. found that there is an absence of any significant difference in the hydrogen bond structure around quite different solutes (Cochran et al., 1992). To evaluate the chemical potentials of ions in the clusters, the fraction of hydrogen bonds for various donor-acceptor pairs in the solution is required, which can be obtained from the fundamental equation of hydrogen-bonding equilibria (see eq A7). In the case of a dilute solution of an anion-cluster with n water molecules, this equation may be written as (see eq A l l )

(20)

where rvn-, is the fraction of cluster-water hydrogen bonds, rvw-w is the fraction of water-water hydrogen bonds, g n - w is hard sphere pair correlation function for the cluster-water interaction, and is the reduced density of the mixture. In the case of a very dilute solution of clusters in water, rvn-w is negligible in comparison to rvw-w. Hence, the water-water hydrogen-bonding equilibria can be considered as independent of cluster-water hydrogen bonding. This simplifies the evaluation of the fraction of water-water hydrogen bonds as

The effective Born radius was determined by equating values of AhGk from eq 15 with those provided elsewhere (Tanger and Pitzer, 1989a), which came from an empirical thermodynamic model (Tanger and Helgeson, 1988). The required densities and fugacities of H20 were calculated from the equation of state of Haar et al. (1984). The dielectric constants were obtained from Uematsu and Franck (1980).

a cluster. A closely related property is the fugacity coefficient ratio for the ion in the cluster to that of the anhydrous ion, c#d4g. To better understand the solvation phenomena, we examine &/dg, the mean hydration number, and A&'* for three cases: (1) the model of Tanger and Pitzer, (2) the physical part of eq 2 based on the repulsive and attractive part of the free energy model (excluding association), and (3) the total free energy model including association, eq 2. We are particularly interested in the effects of association (hydrogen bonding), since they have not been modeled previously. All the following calculations were performed above T, and P, at a constant pressure of 30 MPa. Calculations were not performed closer to the critical point due to large uncertainties in the equation of state in this region. In order to test the model, calculations were performed for Na+ in liquid water from 25 to 75 "C at 1 bar. The mean hydration number was 6.0 over this temperature range, which is consistent with experiment (Burgess, 1988). The number of water molecules hydrogen bonded to each of these waters was 2.0, which is in agreement with molecular dynamics computer simulation for pure water (Mountain, 1989). As shown by Tanger and Pitzer (19891, this type of model can be applied to aqueous solutions at both ambient conditions and supercritical conditions. Given the agreement of these results with the literature, we now examine ions in supercritical water. The results for the model of Tanger and Pitzer are given in Figure 3. Here, the q5n/#g ratio is obtained from a Poynting correction integral as a function of the volume increment for each water molecule in the cluster. The fugacity of the ion in the cluster increases as the size of the cluster (excluded volume) increases, as expected. As kT increases, repulsive forces become less important and rprJ& decreases toward unity. The new results for the physical model (case 2 above) for &/4 are shown in Figure 4. Clearly, the repulsive term must be dominant, since the attractive forces would lead to a fugacity coefficient ratio below unity. There are some differences between the new model and the model of Tanger and Pitzer. In the earlier model, the repulsive forces are treated in terms of empirical effective volume increments, while they are treated with a molecular free energy model in this work. The trends

are similar to those of Tanger and Pitzer, but the new physical model predicts much larger destabilization (a greater especially for the larger clusters. The difference in the models becomes more apparent at lower temperatures where densities and thus repulsive forces are largest. At the highest temperatures, the clusters sense an environment approaching an ideal gas. The &/& ratio changes dramatically when the hydrogen bonding term is added (Figure 5). This ratio changes from above unity to below unity in all cases studied. Likewise, the chemical potential of the ion in the cluster changes from above to below that of the gas phase ion. The stabilization of the clusters due to hydrogen bonding dominates the destabilization due to excluded volume effects. Again, these effects are greatest at lower temperatures where densities are largest, and potential energy is largest relative to kT. As the clusters become larger, the stabilization actually increases due to the added hydrogen bonds (see Figure 6). Because more hydrogen-bonding sites become available on the cluster, the probability of a donor-acceptor interaction increases. For example, approximately two water molecules hydrogen bond t o a cluster for n = 6 a t 400 " C . As temperature increases, thermal energy liberates these waters from the cluster and &J& goes toward unity.

Figure 7. Comparison of the calculated mean hydration number for Na+ and C1- clusters from various models.

The mean hydration number (average cluster size) is shown for the above three cases of interest and also for the ideal gas case where & = 4gin Figure 7 for sodium and chloride ion clusters. The mean hydration number, (n),has been defined previously as n=6

Tanger and Pitzer's model predicts that the clusters are smaller than those in an ideal gas for which @n = @g. The physical model predicts that the clusters are even smaller than those of Tanger and Pitzer's model. This progression is consistent with the increasing strength of repulsive forces which raises +nl#g.In contrast, the mean cluster size for the total free energy model

Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., Vol. 33, No. 11, 1994 2825 including hydrogen bonding exceeds that of the ideal gas clusters. Here the larger clusters are favored due to hydrogen bonding, i.e., $nl$g< 1. In all cases, the mean hydration number decreases as the temperature increases, since hydration is exothermic. At near critical temperatures, the calculated hydration number approaches 6, the value also observed in ambient water. This observation is in general accordance with molecular dynamics simulations (Cummings et al., 1991; Cochran et al., 19921, although the simulations were performed below the critical temperature of water (374 "C), whereas our calculations were performed above T,. The strong hydration of ions in SCW was also observed in the MD simulations of the sN2 reaction of C1- and CH&1 (Balbuena et al., 1994a,b). The results for the mean hydration number are in general agreement with the molecular dynamics simulation data of Gui and Harris (1994)for the Na+ and C1- ions. It is not possible to make an exact comparison for the following reasons. The two studies cover similar ranges in temperature, although the simulations were done at constant density, whereas our calculations were done at constant pressure. More importantly, the definition of the first hydration shell is not exact. For the simulations, the size of the first hydration shell is fixed at a desired value. In the model, it is not specified explicitly but is obtained from eqs 6 and 25. Therefore, the comparison between the simulations and the model is qualitative. In order to place the results in perspective, we refer to the results in ambient water at 25 "C discussed above. At 25 "C, the number of hydrogen bonds per cluster is 12, a much larger value than for SCW in Figure 6. In SCW, kT is sufficiently high and the density is sufficiently low to break a large number of the hydrogen bonds between water and the water molecules which hydrate the ion. In contrast, the mean hydration number a t 425 "C is not much smaller than the value of 6 in ambient water. The different temperature effects on water-water hydrogen bonds and on the hydration number has been explained on the basis of simulation studies (Balbuena et al., 199413). The difference is due t o the fact that the donor-acceptor bonds between the oxygen in water and the Na+ ion are much stronger than the water-water hydrogen bonds (Balbuena et al., 1994b). In the simulation study, two properties were calculated, the excess hydration number Ne, and the total hydration number N h . For Na+, the simulation results are similar for Ne, and N h ; however N h is significantly larger than Ne, for C1-. For C1-, our results are closer to Ne,, as we focus on inner-shell water molecules quite close to the ion. At 427 "C, the hydration numbers are 3.5 and 4.8 for the simulation and calculation, respectively. At 527 "C, the values are 4.0 and 3.9. Similar agreement is found for Na+. For both simulation and theory, the hydration number decreases with temperature and the decrease is larger for C1-. The inner-shell contribution to the Gibbs free energy of hydration for Na+ and C1- ions is presented in Figure 8, again for the three cases of interest. The results are consistent with those for $,& and the mean hydration number. The total free energy model predicts the most negative values for AhGis because of the stabilization of the clusters due to the hydrogen bonding. For example, the magnitude of A h P S is about 20 kJlmol greater than for Tanger and Pitzer's model a t 425 "C and 30 MPa. As temperature increases, this difference diminishes as the hydrogen bonds are broken.

Figure 9. Effective Born radius for NaC1.

The results for the total Gibbs free energy of hydration are the same as predicted by Tanger and Pitzer's model, since the Born radius was fit to experimental values (Tanger and Pitzer, 1989a) of A&' by using eq 15 at each temperature. The effective Born radius of NaCl (sum of Born radius for Na+ and C1-) for the Tanger and Pitzer model and the new model are given in Figure 9 at 30 MPa. The new model predicts a higher effective Born radius, which is equivalent to a smaller magnitude for &,GOs. Notice that less of the solvation is included in the outer-shell term because of the greater solvation in the inner shell due to hydrogen bonding. The larger effective Born radius is consistent with the larger mean hydration number. The effective Born

radius of NaCl is larger than its crystal radius because of the volume increase due to the inner-shell water molecules. The new model could also be used to predict solvation properties without fitting the Born radius, since it takes into account all of the key molecular interactions. The Born radius could be estimated as the radius of a cluster with the mean hydration number. The various contributions to the Gibbs free energy of hydration for NaCl at 30 MPa are given in Figure 10 for the new model. The inner- and outer-shell terms are of similar magnitude. Indeed the physical and hydrogen-bonding interactions are significant compared with the electrostatic interactions. Whereas both the inner- and outer-shell terms become more negative as temperature decreases, the change is somewhat larger for the outer-shell term. Additional thermodynamic properties of solvation, i.e., entropy, enthalpy, and heat capacity, have been calculated by taking the appropriate derivatives of AhG numerically. For the new model, the enthalpy of hydration and its various components are presented in Figure 11. Energetically, the ion clusters are stabilized by both hydrogen bonding and electrostatic solvation.

T ("C) Figure 13. Polydispersity of the Na+ ion-clusters.

The latter is influenced much more strongly by temperature, particularly below 500 "C, where density changes are largest. Here large changes in the dielectric constant have a large effect on the Born term. The pressure and temperature derivatives of the dielectric constant diverge at the critical point, which explains the large variations in the Born term. The entropy of hydration is shown in Figure 12. The clusters become more ordered by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic forces. There is some compensation between the enthalpy and entropy of hydration, such that the changes in the free energy with temperature are less pronounced. The polydispersity in the hydration number is shown in Figure 13 in terms of the standard deviation over the mean. Two compensating effects are apparent. At temperatures well above T,, the polydispersity increases with T as thermal fluctuations grow, due to an increase in TS. Near the critical point, there is a large increase in polydispersity with a small decrease in T. Here the large increase in the isothermal compressibility produces large concentration fluctuations which increase the polydispersity. This near critical effect was also observed in CFBHas measured with a fluorescent probe (Betts et al., 1992).

Conclusions The molecular thermodynamic model for the chemical potential of ion-water clusters provides a means to calculate a wide variety of properties including the distribution of hydration numbers and the standard free energy, internal energy, and entropy of hydration. Because all of the parameters in the model are based on molecular properties, the model has predictive capabilities. Hydrogen bonding stabilizes an ion-cluster to a much greater extent than it is destabilized by repulsive forces. Consequently, hydrogen bonding increases the mean hydration number and the effective Born radius. The existence of clusters with high local densities of water about ions is consistent with molecular dynamics simulation (Cochran et al., 1992 ; Balbuena et al., 1994a,b; Cui and Harris, 1994) and electrochemical measurements of diffusion coefficients of ions (Flarsheim et al., 1986). In the new model, the nonelectrostatic forces stabilize the ion-water clusters, which is the opposite result of the model of Tanger and Pitzer and our purely physical model (which excludes association). At 425 "C, about two water molecules form hydrogen bonds with a cluster containing six water molecules about Na+. The free energy of hydration is stabilized by about 20 kJ/mol, and the mean hydration number increases by a full unit from 4.5 t o 5.5. The hydration numbers, which are in good agreement with simulation (Cui and Harris,1994), decrease with temperature. The stabilization due to hydrogen bonding is comparable to that by Born solvation. As the temperature is lowered toward the critical temperature, the density of water increases significantly at 30 MPa. Therefore, hydration becomes much more exothermic, and the clusters become more ordered primarily due t o hydrogen bonding and electrostatic solvation. The solvation of ion-water clusters in supercritical water may be expected t o have a large influence on chemical reactions in which the polarity changes upon activation.

and i

The number of ways of distributing the Nu bonds among the functional groups of the system is the same as derived by Panayiotou and Sanchez (1991) by generalizing the argument of Veytsman (1990) to the case of multigroup molecules. The mean field probability that a specific acceptor will be proximate t o a given donor is proportional to the volume of the acceptor group divided by the total segment volume, i.e., 1N (or GlrN). We modify this probability to include the donoracceptor pair correlation function, gv, which is assumed to be same as the segment-segment pair correlation function on which donor and acceptor groups reside. The formation of the hydrogen bond is also accompanied by a loss of rotational degrees of freedom. In general, for the donor-acceptor i-j pair, the probability is given by

where Sv" is the entropy loss (intrinsically negative) associated with hydrogen bond formation of an (ij ) pair. The Helmholtz free energy due to hydrogen bonding (aassoc) can be obtained from the canonical partition function.
