Abstract
The infrared reflection spectra of molten lithium, sodium, and potassium hydroxides have been obtained from 4200–200 cm—1 and the optical constants derived by the method of Robinson and Price. The absorption spectra are consistent with some latticelike structure in the liquid state, with the degree of order in the three melts being virtually identical. The hydroxide ion is most probably unassociated and freely rotating in all melts.Keywords
