As a general rule, adsorbates above their critical temperatures do not give multilayer type isotherms. In such a situation, a porous absorbent behaves like any other, unless the pores are of molecular size, and at this point the distinction between adsorption and absorption dims. Below the critical temperature, multilayer formation is possible and capillary condensation can occur. These two aspects of the behavior of porous solids are discussed briefly in this section. Some lUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) recommendations for the characterization of porous solids are given in Ref. 178.

The SPC/E model approximates many-body effects m liquid water and corresponds to a molecular dipole moment of 2.35 Debye (D) compared to the actual dipole moment of 1.85 D for an isolated water molecule. The model reproduces the diflfiision coefficient and themiodynamics properties at ambient temperatures to within a few per cent, and the critical parameters (see below) are predicted to within 15%. The same model potential has been extended to include the interactions between ions and water by fitting the parameters to the hydration energies of small ion-water clusters. The parameters for the ion-water and water-water interactions in the SPC/E model are given in table A2.3.2.

Information about critical points on the PES is useful in building up a picture of what is important in a particular reaction. In some cases, usually themially activated processes, it may even be enough to describe the mechanism behind a reaction. However, for many real systems dynamical effects will be important, and the MEP may be misleading. This is particularly true in non-adiabatic systems, where quantum mechanical effects play a large role. For example, the spread of energies in an excited wavepacket may mean that the system finds an intersection away from the minimum energy point, and crosses there. It is for this reason that molecular dynamics is also required for a full characterization of the system of interest.
