Abstract
The “free water” phase in a aqueous salt solution behaves similarly to water under pressure in terms of thermal expansion, dynamics, and local structure. Molecular dynamics simulations reproduce the anomalous properties of water and salt solutions almost quantitatively. Under supercooled conditions solvated ions stabilize the “high-density” configuration of water (see picture; H white, O red, blue: hydrogen bonds).
