- W2895826773 abstract "Water is abundant and ubiquitous in our body and on earth. Despite its critical importance in life, and compared with the spectacular development of modern physics, fundamental understanding of its physics is surprisingly poor. In principle statistical mechanics is expected to explain its physical properties in a quantitative detail, but is quite difficult to implement due to the relative complexity of water molecules and the non-isotropic interactions among them. The statistical mechanics study for water is rare and limited (Dill et al. in Annu Rev Biophys Biomol Struct 34:173–199, 2005; Stanley et al. in Phys A: Stat Mech Appl 315:281–289, 2002). Instead of the statistical mechanics we give a semi-quantitative sketch of basic thermal properties of water and the hydrogen bonding that underlies the unique characteristics of water. We also introduce the biologically relevant interactions between objects in water. They are hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions, the electrostatic interaction among charges and dipoles, and Van der Waals interactions. In many cases, the electrostatic interactions turn out to be weak with the strength comparable to the thermal energy ( k_{B} T ) and much less upon thermalization, due to the screening effects of water’s high dielectric constant and the ion concentration. These weak interactions facilitate conformational changes of biological soft matter such as polymers and membranes at body temperature." @default.
