Abstract

Abstract The reference hypernetted chain like integral equation of the interaction site model is solved numerically for a solution of ions in a polar solvent. In our model, the ions and the solvent molecules are taken to be charged hard spheres and polar hard dumb-bells, respectively. Calculated pair correlation functions contain a great deal of interesting information on the short range structure of the ionic solutions: a solvated structure around ions and an effect of ionic charges upon the structure of the solvent. It is found that various types of associated structures of constituent species, such as simple ion pairs, ion triplets, and ion pairs separated by one solvent molecule exist in ionic solutions.
