Computer simulation of the adsorption of acetylene by disperse aqueous medium. IR spectra

Adsorption of acetylene molecules by water clusters at T 230 K was studied by the method of molecular dynamics. Addition of already two C₂H₂ molecules to (H₂O) _n clusters (10 ≤ n ≤ 20) makes them thermodynamically unstable. With an increase in the acetylene concentration in the disperse aqueous system, the IR absorption by the cluster system in the frequency range 0 ≤ ω ≤ 1000 cm^?1 increases. Depending on the number of C₂H₂ molecules per water cluster, the IR reflection by cluster systems can either increase or decrease. The power of the thermal radiation emitted by the clusters considerably increases after the adsorption of C₂H₂ molecules and grows with an increase in the acetylene concentration in the disperse aqueous system.
