Scientists Discover 3-D Structure in Smaller Water Droplet

Water and its interactions with other substances are essential to human life. However, understanding the structure of the liquid and its hydrogen-bonding networks has been a challenge. According to previous studies, all oxygen atoms in water trimers, tetramers, and pentamers with cyclic minimum-energy structures exist in a two-dimensional (2D) plane. In contrast, the hexamers have ...
