Abstract

AbstractLine shapes of the17O n.m.r. of the solvent water have been measured in solutions containing small amounts of HCl or NaOH and various inorganic and organic salts. Proton life times τ in the water molecule have been derived from these spectra. The life time in the neutral electrolyte solutions, the maximum life time, the rate constants for the proton exchange catalized by H+and OH−ions, and the pH value at which the maximum r occurs are reported. Correlations with the well‐known structure forming and structure breaking properties of ions are discussed. The results are also compared with the electrical extraconductivity observed in these solutions.
