INTERACTION OF HCL WITH WATER CLUSTERS - (H2O)(N)HCL, N=1-3

Ab initio MP2 equilibrium geometries of the clusters (H2O)mHCl, m = 1-3, and (H2O)n, n = 1-4, are reported. It is found that the clusters form hydrogen-bonded rings, with HCl acting as a proton donor. There is a significant increase in the HCl bond length as the cluster size increases, as well as a...
