Abstract

Overwhelming contributions have been made since two-century-long ago to understanding the solvation dynamics, solute-solute and solute-solvent molecular interactions, and solution properties from various perspectives. Limited knowledge about the solvent water structure and hydrogen bond cooperativity (O:H–O or HB with “:” being the nonbonding electron lone pairs pertained to oxygen upon sp3-orbital hybridization) hindered the progress. Amplification of the phonon spectroscopy to spectrometrics and of the perspective of molecular motion to hydration bonding dynamics would be necessary towards the solute capabilities of transiting the ordinary O:H–O bond to the hydrating states and their impact to the performance of solutions.
