Broadband dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) has been used to investigate aqueous solutions of MgCl2 and CaCl2 up to concentrations of about 1.8 mol L-1 at 25 degrees C over the frequency range 0.07 <= nu/GHz <= 89. Detailed analysis of the dominant solvent mode centered at similar to 20 GHz showed that both Mg2+ and Ca2+ are strongly solvated, each immobilizing similar to 20 water molecules on the DRS timescale. This is consistent with the formation of two well-defined hydration layers around both cations. The hydration shell of Ca2+(aq) was found to be slightly more labile compared with Mg2+(aq). Two or three low-intensity soluterelated modes were observed at frequencies less than or similar to 10 GHz for MgCl2(aq) and CaCl2 , respectively. Two of these modes were attributed to the formation of double-solvent-separated and solvent-shared 1:1 ion pairs. The third mode (observed at very low frequencies and only for some CaCl2 solutions) was thought to be due to an ion-cloud relaxation. No evidence was found for "slow" water or, consistent with the strong cation hydration, for contact ion pairs. The overall association constants for MgC1+(aq) and CaC1+(aq) calculated from the ion-pairing constants were very small but in good agreement with literature values obtained from other techniques.
