Abstract
Sequential hydration energies of SO4(H2O)(n)2- were obtained from determinations of the equilibrium constants of the following reactions: SO4(H2O)(n)2- = SO4(H2O)(n-1)2- + H2O. The SO4(2-) ions were produced by electrospray and the equilibrium constants Kn,n-1 were determined with a reaction chamber attached to a mass spectrometer. Determinations of Kn,n-1 at different temperatures were used to obtain DeltaG0n,n-1, DeltaH0 n,n-1, and DeltaS0n,n-1 for n = 7 to 19. Interference of the charge separation reaction SO4(H2O)(n)2- = HSO4(H2O)(n-k)- + OH(H2O)(k-1)- at higher temperatures prevented determinations for n < 7. The DeltaS0n,n-1 values obtained are unusually low and this indicates very loose, disordered structures for the n > or = 7 hydrates. The DeltaH0n,n-1 values are compared with theoretical values DeltaEn,n-1, obtained by Wang, Nicholas, and Wang. Rate constant determinations of the dissociation reactions n,n - 1, obtained with the BIRD method by Wong and Williams, showed relatively lower rates for n = 6 and 12, which indicate that these hydrates are more stable. No discontinuities of the DeltaG0n,n-1 values indicating an unusually stable n = 12 hydrate were observed in the present work. Rate constants evaluated from the DeltaG0n,n-1 results also fail to indicate a lower rate for n = 12. An analysis of the conditions used in the two types of experiments indicates that the different results reflect the different energy distributions expected at the dissociation threshold. Higher internal energies prevail in the equilibrium measurements and allow the participation of more disordered transition states in the reaction.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
