[NewCandle] Physical Methods Of Water

[Keith Nagel]

Yes, both those things aretrue. But what I had in mind was whether there
was a net magnetic dipole moment to the neutral molecule.
In the case of diamagnetism, the dipole forms in response to
an applied field. Quite different than the molecule having
an intrinsic dipole.

I was considering this when I read the paper mentioned
in the header, all I could think of was "Stern Gerlach Experiment".
If water molecules did have an intrinsic magnetic dipole moment, one
could seperate them into streams of spin aligned molecules
with a magnetic field gradient. But that is not the case
with an induced dipole.

OTOH, you ought to be able to create a stream of slightly
more acid and more basic water, due to the ions being
moved to the left or the right due to the lorentz force.
I've seen the complement of this effect, by doing electrolysis
in a neutral solution with a pH indicator and a magnet.
You can split the ion streams with the magnet, and see the results visually
as changes in the color of the water around the magnet.
In fact, with a pair of pH meters, a powerful magnet,
and a water stream, one could easily characterize the
effect.

Pure water is strongly dielectric and is also diamagnetic with a 
significant dipole.

This means that it can be controlled and aligned by a magnetic field, 
but not in the usual way (attraction - like a paramagnetic molecule) but 
oddly - also not exactly in the "reversed" way either (repulsion) as is 
commonly believed.
