Popis: A method is presented to determine the absolute hydration enthalpy of the proton, ΔHaq°[H+], from a set of cluster-ion solvation data without the use of extra thermodynamic assumptions. The absolute proton hydration enthalpy has been found to be ∼50 kJ/mol different than traditional values and has been more precisely determined (by about an order of magnitude). Conventional ion solvation properties, based on the standard heat of formation of H+(aq) set to zero, have been devised that may be confusing to the uninitiated but are useful in thermochemical evaluations because they avoid the unnecessary introduction of the larger uncertainties in our knowledge of absolute values. In a similar strategy, we have motivated the need for a reassessment of ΔHaq°[H+] by the trends with increased clustering in conventional cluster-ion solvation enthalpy differences for pairs of oppositely charged cluster ions. The consequences of particular preferred values for ΔHaq°[H+] may be evaluated with regard to cluster-ion prop...
