In situ Raman spectroscopy revealed that transiting H2O/NaX (∼64) solutions into an ice VI phase and then into an ice VII phase at a temperature of 298 K requires excessive pressures with respect to pure water. The increase of the critical pressures varies with the solute type in the Hofmeister series order: X = I > Br > Cl > F ∼ 0. The results suggest that the solute hydration creates electric fields that lengthen and soften the O:H nonbond and meanwhile shorten and stiffen the H–O bond through O–O Coulomb repulsion. Compression, however, does the opposite to solute electrification upon the O:H–O bond relaxation. Therefore, compression of the aqueous solutions recovers the electrification-deformed O:H–O bond first and then proceeds to the phase transitions, which requires excessive energy for the same sequence of phase transitions. Ice exclusion of solute disperses the frequencies of characteristic phonons and the critical pressures with unlikely new bond formation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
