A Microdynamic Model of Electrolyte Solutions as Derived from Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation and Self‐Diffusion Data

Abstract Experimental data of the proton relaxation rate in aqueous solutions of alkali and alkaline earth halides at four different temperatures (0, 25, 50, 80 °C) are reported. A number of measured self‐diffusion coefficients of water in electrolyte solutions at various temperatures are also given. From these experimental data models of the electrolyte solutions are derived which are characterized by certain hydration numbers, reorientational correlation times for the water molecules, translational jumping times, and by the activation energies connected with the respective microdynamic processes.
