Structural transformations in water and in aqueous solutions of electrolytes under various external influences

In the work the methods of assessing changes in the structure of water or aqueous electrolyte solutions under various external influences by determining the electrical capacitance of the fluid and q-factor resonant circuit in the frequency range from 1 kHz to 3000 kHz. The plates of the capacitor in different types of electrochemical cells locate opposite each other at a distance greater than 5 cm, or displaced relative to each other in parallel planes, or locate in one plane, and the liquid in this case is located above the capacitor plates. The current density on the plates in different cells is from 10 to 100 na/cm . When measuring capacitance, the voltage applied to the plates, changes proportionally to the increase in the frequency of the generator. This methodical approach increases the dynamic range of change of the signal from the electrochemical cell, reduces the impact of measurements on the structure of liquids and allows to indirectly estimate the direction and intensity of changes in the structures of distilled water, drinking and mineral water, and aqueous solutions at various influences, including changes in temperature, magnetic fields, the influence of the surface material in near-wall layer, and other factors. The criterion to assess the structure of aqueous solutions in the parietal layer and the criterion for assessing the drinking and mineral waters are offered. It is shown that an increase (decrease) electric capacity and / or quality factor of an oscillatory circuit under different treatments reflects the increase (decrease) the mobility of the water dipoles in an alternating electric field (in usual and (or) resonant modes ), and obviously means a reduction (increase) of structure of water and aqueous solutions.
