The simple point charge (SPC) model [1] is an empirical model of water. The molecule is modelled as a rigid isosceles triangle, having charges situated on each of the three atoms. As well as Coulombic interactions, the molecules interact via long-range Lennard-Jones sites, situated on the oxygen atoms. The parameters are as follows:

parameter value
σ 3.166Å
ϵ 0.650 kJ mol-1
rOH 1.000Å
∠HOH 109.47∘
qO −0.82e
qH |qO|/2 (charge neutrality)

The SPC model has a dipole moment of 2.27 D.

Surface tension[edit]

The surface tension has been studied for the SPC model by Vega and Miguel. [2]
