Abstract

Various physical properties of water with I E structures are measured. Compared with oridinary water, there is an approximate 20% decrease in dielectric constant for I E water at MHz as an increase of emf generated by I E water between two identical stainless steel electrodes, and an increase in resistivity to AC current. Fluorescence at 298 nm peak is seen in I E water but not in ordinary water. From the thermal variation of UV absorption spectrum, one can estimate the amount of I E structure to be up to 3%. The elevation of boiling point due to I E structure can then be used to calculate the molecular weight of I E structure to be the same as water molecule.
