✦ Synopsis
The effect on the velocity of sound in water of a uniform distribution of compensating positive and negative solute ions is investigated in the hydrodynamic approximation. Coulomb interactions between ions are represented by a self-consistent electric field in the water, which is determined by Poisson's equation and the distribution of ions. Three coupled equations of motion for the water molecules, and positive and negative ions, are respectively linearized and combined with Poisson's equation to study the normal modes of the system. A secular equation for the frequencies of traveling waves is solved in the long-wavelength limit to study ionic hydration effects.

The surface of titanium was modified in calcium-ion-containing solutions to improve bone conductivity. Three kinds of aqueous solutions for the modification were prepared using calcium nitrate, calcium chloride, and calcium oxide. The pH values of the solutions were 3.9, 7.4, and 12.6, respectively.
