Abstract
In experimental studies, heavy water (D2O) is employed, e.g., so as to shift the spectroscopic solvent background, but any potential effects of this solvent exchange on reaction pathways are often neglected. While the important role of light water (H2O) during the early stages of calcium carbonate formation has been realized, studies into the actual effects of aqueous solvent exchanges are scarce. Here, we present a combined computational and experimental approach to start to fill this gap. We extended a suitable force field for molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Experimentally, we utilised advanced titration assays and time-resolved attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy. We find distinct effects in various mixtures of the two aqueous solvents, and in pure H2O or D2O. Disagreements between the computational results and experimental data regarding the stabilities of ion associates might be due to the unexplored role of HDO, or an unprobed complex phase behaviour of the solvent mixtures in the simulations. Altogether, however, our data suggest that calcium carbonate formation might proceed "more classically" in D2O. Also, there are indications for the formation of new structures in amorphous and crystalline calcium carbonates. There is huge potential towards further improving the understanding of mineralization mechanisms by studying solvent-mediated isotope effects, also beyond calcium carbonate. Last, it must be appreciated that H2O and D2O have significant, distinct effects on mineralization mechanisms, and that care has to be taken when experimental data from D2O studies are used, e.g., for the development of H2O-based computer models.

Abstract
Alkylimidazolium salts are an important class of ionic liquids (ILs) due to their self-assembly capacity when in solution and due to their potential applications in chemistry and materials science. Therefore, detailed knowledge of the physicochemical properties of this class of ILs and their mixtures with natural polymers is highly desired. This work describes the interactions between a homologous series of mono- (CnMIMBr) and dicationic imidazolium (Cn(MIM)2Br2) ILs with cellulose ethers in aqueous medium. The effects of the alkyl chain length (n = 10, 12, 14, and 16), type, and concentration range of ILs (below and above their cmc) on the binding to methylcellulose (MC) were evaluated. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the interactions are favored by the increase of the IL hydrocarbon chain length, and that the binding of monocationic ILs to MC is driven by entropy. The monocationic ILs bind more effectively on the methoxyl group of MC when compared to dicationic ILs, and this outcome may be rationalized by considering the structural difference between the conventional (CnMIMBr) and the bolaform (Cn(MIM)2Br2) surfactant ILs. The C16MIMBr interacts more strongly with hydroxypropylcellulose when compared to methylcellulose, indicating that the strength of the interaction also depends on the hydrophobicity of the cellulose ethers. Our findings highlight that several parameters should be taken into account when designing new complex formulations.

Abstract
Phospholipid self-assembly is the basis of biomembrane stability. The entropy of transfer from water to self-assembled micelles of lysophosphatidylcholines and diacyl phosphatidylcholines with different chain lengths converges to a common value at a temperature of 44°C. The corresponding enthalpies of transfer converge at ∼-18°C. An equation of state for the free energy of self-assembly formulated from this thermodynamic data depends on the heat capacity of transfer as the sole parameter needed to specify a particular lipid. For lipids lacking calorimetric data, measurement of the critical micelle concentration at a single temperature suffices to define an effective heat capacity according to the model. Agreement with the experimental temperature dependence of the critical micelle concentration is then good. The predictive powers should extend also to amphiphile partitioning and the kinetics of lipid-monomer transfer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is a general technique that allows for precise and highly sensitive measurements. These measurements may provide a complete and accurate thermodynamic description of association processes in complex systems such as colloidal mixtures. SCOPE OF THE REVIEW This review will address uses of ITC for studies of surfactant aggregation to form micelles, with emphasis on the thermodynamic studies of homologous surfactant series. We will also review studies on surfactant association with polymers of different molecular characteristics and with colloidal particles. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE ITC studies on the association of different homologous series of surfactants provide quantitative information on independent contribution from their apolar hydrocarbon chains and polar headgroups to the different thermodynamic functions associated with micellization (Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy). Studies on surfactant association to polymers by ITC provide a comprehensive description of the association process, including examples in which particular features revealed by ITC were elucidated by using ancillary techniques such as light or X-ray scattering measurements. Examples of uses of ITC to follow surfactant association to biomolecules such as proteins or DNA, or nanoparticles are also highlighted. Finally, recent theoretical models that were proposed to analyze ITC data in terms of binding/association processes are discussed. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS This review stresses the importance of using direct calorimetric measurements to obtain and report accurate thermodynamic data, even in complex systems. These data, whenever possible, should be confirmed and associated with other ancillary techniques that allow elucidation of the nature of the transformations detected by calorimetric results, providing a complete description of the process under scrutiny.

Abstract
The micellization of a homologous series of zwitterionic surfactants, a group of sulfobetaines, was studied using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) in the temperature range from 15 to 65 °C. The increase in both temperature and the alkyl chain length leads to more negative values of ΔGmic(0) , favoring the micellization. The entropic term (ΔSmic(0)) is predominant at lower temperatures, and above ca. 55-65 °C, the enthalpic term (ΔHmic(0)) becomes prevalent, figuring a jointly driven process as the temperature increases. The interaction of these sulfobetaines with different polymers was also studied by ITC. Among the polymers studied, only two induced the formation of micellar aggregates at lower surfactant concentration: poly(acrylic acid), PAA, probably due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between the carboxylic group of the polymer and the sulfonate group of the surfactant, and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate), PSS, probably due to the incorporation of the hydrophobic styrene group into the micelles. The prevalence of the hydrophobic and not the electrostatic contributions to the interaction between sulfobetaine and PSS was confirmed by an increased interaction enthalpy in the presence of electrolytes (NaCl) and by the observation of a significant temperature dependence, the latter consistent with the proposed removal of hydrophobic groups from water.

Abstract
Negatively charged phospholipids are an important component of biological membranes. The thermodynamic parameters governing self-assembly of anionic phospholipids are deduced here from isothermal titration calorimetry. Heats of demicellization were determined for dioctanoyl phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylserine (PS) at different ionic strengths, and for dioctanoyl phosphatidic acid at different pH values. The large heat capacity (ΔC°(P) ∼ -400 J.mol(-1) K(-1) for PG and PS), and zero enthalpy at a characteristic temperature near the physiological range (T(∗) ~ 300 K for PG and PS), demonstrate that the driving force for self-assembly is the hydrophobic effect. The pH and ionic-strength dependences indicate that the principal electrostatic contribution to self-assembly comes from the entropy associated with the electrostatic double layer, in agreement with theoretical predictions. These measurements help define the thermodynamic effects of anionic lipids on biomembrane stability.

Abstract
The interaction of iron (hydr)oxides with fatty acids is related to many industrial and natural processes. To resolve current controversies about the adsorption configurations of fatty acids and the conditions of the maximum hydrophobicity of the minerals, we perform a detailed study of the adsorption of sodium laurate (dodecanoate) on 150 nm hematite (α-Fe(2)O(3)) particles as a model system. The methods used include in situ FTIR spectroscopy, ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), measurements of the adsorption isotherm and contact angle, as well as the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We found that the laurate adlayer is present as a mixture of inner-sphere monodentate mononuclear (ISMM) and outer-sphere (OS) hydration shared complexes independent of the solution pH. Protonation of the OS complexes does not influence the conformational order of the surfactant tails. One monolayer, which is filled through the growth of domains and is reached at the micellization/precipitation edge of laurate, makes the particles superhydrophobic. These results contradict previous models of the fatty acid adsorption and suggest new interpretation of literature data. Finally, we discovered that the fractions of both the OS laurate and its molecular form increase in D(2)O, which can be used for interpreting complex spectra. We discuss shortcomings of vibrational spectroscopy in determining the interfacial coordination of carboxylate groups. This work advances the current understanding of the oxide-carboxylate interactions and the research toward improving performance of fatty acids as surfactants, dispersants, lubricants, and anticorrosion reagents.

Abstract
We present the application of pressure perturbation calorimetry (PPC) as a new method for the volumetric characterization of the micelle formation of surfactants. The evaluation is realized by a global fit of PPC curves at different surfactant concentration ranging, if possible, from below to far above the CMC. It is based on the knowledge of the temperature dependence of the CMC, which can for example be characterized by isothermal titration calorimetry. We demonstrate the new approach for decyl-β-maltopyranoside (DM). It shows a strong volume increase upon micelle formation of 16 ± 2.5 mL/mol (+4%) at 25 °C, and changes with temperature by -0.1 mL/(mol K). The apparent molar expansivity (E(S)) decreases upon micelle formation from 0.44 to 0.31 mL/(mol K) at 25 °C. Surprisingly, the temperature dependence of the expansivity of DM in solution (as compared with that of maltose) does not agree with the principal behavior described for polar (E(S)(T) decreasing) and hydrophobic (E(S)(T) increasing) solutes or moieties before. The results are discussed in terms of changes in hydration of the molecules and internal packing of the micelles and compared with the volumetric effects of transitions of proteins, DNA, lipids, and polymers.

Abstract
The micellization behavior of a series of n-alkyl-maltosides in aqueous solution was studied by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) at 25 degrees C. Demicellization experiments were conducted with single component micelles of octyl (OM), nonyl (NM), decyl (DM), undecyl (UM), and dodecyl (lauryl, LM) maltoside and binary mixtures of LM with OM, NM, DM and UM, respectively. A model was derived on the basis of the pseudophase approximation to fit the complete demicellization curves. It yielded good global fits of the curves obtained at different mixing ratios and ranging over >3 orders of magnitude in concentrations. It provides a quantitative explanation for the two-range coassociation behavior of the surfactant mixtures also in the absence of second critical micelle concentration (CMC) phenomena. The hydrodynamic radius, RH, of the mixed micelles was the average of that of the pure components as seen by noninvasive backscattering (NIBS) DLS. Methylene group contributions were constant for octyl through myristyl chains, amounting to -3.1 kJ/mol for the standard free energy and -1.8 kJ/mol for the enthalpy of micellization. RH increased by 0.25 nm per methylene.

Abstract
Partitioning of six typical globular proteins with molecular weights ranging from 12.6 to 250 kDa was investigated using an aqueous two-phase system formed by heating a solution containing the individual proteins and n-dodecyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO12) above the cloud point of the nonionic surfactant (approximately 40 degrees C). The partition coefficient, Kp, was much greater at 55 than 45 degrees C and depended on both APO12 and protein concentrations. The value of Kp for bovine beta-lactoglobulin (beta-L) varied from 2 to 60, and was larger for 1.0mg/mL solutions than for ovalbumin (2x greater), bovine serum albumin (3x greater) and lysozyme (12x greater). Catalase and cytochrome c were apparently denatured in the presence of 20mg/mL of APO12 and were not investigated. Large values of Kp for beta-L resulted when the pH of APO12 mixtures containing phospholipids and either a cationic or anionic surfactant in molar ratios of 10:0.5:1.0 was partitioned above or below the isoelectric point of the protein, respectively. The affinity of the proteins for the APO12 micelle was responsible for partitioning of the proteins into the upper phase. Finally, DSC studies with beta-L showed that the denaturing action of n-decyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO10) below 61 degrees C and APO12 at 22 degrees C was reversed by dilution or dialysis, respectively.

Abstract
Micelle formation by many surfactants is endothermic at low temperatures but exothermic at high temperatures. In this respect, dissociation of micelles (demicellization) is similar to dissolving hydrocarbons in water. However, a remarkable difference between the two processes is that dissolving hydrocarbons is isocaloric at about 25 degrees C, almost independently of the hydrocarbon chain length, whereas the temperature (T*) at which demicellization of different surfactants is athermal varies over a relatively large range. We have investigated the temperature dependence of the heat of demicellization of three alkylglucosides with hydrocarbon chains of 7, 8, and 9 carbon atoms. At about 25 degrees C, the heat of demicellization of the three studied alkylglucosides varied within a relatively small range (DeltaH=-7.8+/-0.4 kJ/mol). The temperature dependence of DeltaH(demic) indicates that within the studied temperature range the heat capacity of demicellization (DeltaC(P,demic)) is about constant. The value of DeltaC(P,demic) exhibited an apparently linear dependence on the surfactant's chain length (DeltaC(P,demic)/n(CH(2))=47+/-7 kJ/mol K). Our interpretation of these results is that (i) the transfer of the head groups from micelles to water is exothermic and (ii) the temperature dependence of the heat associated with water-hydrocarbon interactions is only slightly affected by the head group. This implies that the deviation of the value of T* from 25 degrees C results from the contribution of the polar head to the overall heat of demicellization. Calorimetric studies of other series of amphiphiles will have to be conducted to test whether the latter conclusion is general.

Abstract
Denaturation of bovine beta-lactoglobulin (beta-L) in pH 2.9, 0.2 M glycine buffer was investigated by DSC in the presence of three nonionic surfactants, n-octyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO8), n-decyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO10), and n-dodecyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO12), and by ITC at temperatures from 25 to 61 degrees C. The thermal transition was eliminated when the molar ratio of surfactant to beta-L was between 88 and 133, 21-25, and 11-22 depending upon the protein concentration for APO8, APO10, and APO12, respectively. A protocol was developed that may be used for future studies that involve ligands with large temperature-dependent heats of dilution. Approximately 30 mol of APO10 and APO12 per mole of beta-L were bound at 45 degrees C and 37 degrees C, respectively, with an average affinity of (2.5 +/- 0.7) x 10(3) M(-1). This amount of surfactant would cover about 50% of the protein surface and may correspond to a new class of nonspecific neutral ligand binding sites that facilitate the digestion of lipids by neonatal calves. Titration of beta-L into 2% solutions of APO8, APO10, and APO12 at various temperatures between 25 and 61 degrees C yielded enthalpy changes with the same temperature dependence as for the thermal denaturation of beta-L without surfactant at much higher temperatures.

Abstract
The thermodynamic parameters that govern micelle formation by four different nonionic surfactants were investigated by ITC and DSC. These included n-dodecyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO12), Triton X-100 (TX-100), n-octyltetraoxyethylene (C8E4), and N,N-dimethyloctylamine-N-oxide (DAO8). All of these surfactants had been previously investigated by solution calorimetry over smaller temperature ranges with conflicting conclusions as to the temperature dependence of the heat capacity change, DeltaCp, for the process. The temperature coefficient of the heat capacity change, B (cal/mol K2), was derived from the enthalpy data that were obtained at small intervals over a broad temperature range. The values obtained for each of the surfactants at 298.2 K for DeltaCp and B were -155+/-2 and 0.50+/-0.36 (APO12), -97+/-3 and -0.24+/-0.18 (TX-100), -105+/-2 and 1.0+/-0.3 (C8E4), and -82+/-1 and 0.36+/-0.04 (DAO8), cal/mol K and cal/mol K2, respectively. The resulting B-values did not correlate with the cmc, aggregation number, or structure of the monomer in an obvious way, but they were found to reflect the relative changes in hydration of the polar and nonpolar portions of the surfactant molecule as the micelles are formed. An analysis of the data obtained from DSC scans was used to describe the temperature dependence of the critical micelle concentration, cmc. An abrupt increase in heat capacity was observed for TX-100 and C8E4 solutions of 36.5+/-0.5 and 21+/-5 cal/mol K, respectively, as the temperature of the scan passed through the cloud point. This change in heat capacity may reflect the increased monomer concentration of the solutions that accompanies phase separation, although other interpretations of this jump are possible.

Abstract
A new cmc determination method based on a NIR spectroscopic technique has been developed. Comparing to other cmc determination methods, this NIR method is universal, sensitive, nonintrusive and nonadditive; namely, it can be used for the direct measurements of cmc of normal micelles as well as reversed micelles, without adding any dye or fluorescent probe. cmc values of various surfactants including CTAB, SDS, Triton X-100, Brij-35, Brij-700, Tween-20, SB-12, SB3-10 determined by this method agree very well with those determined by other methods. Additionally, the method can be used for the sensitive and direct determination of cmc values of various nonionic surfactants in room-temperature ionic liquids including [BMIm](+)[PF(6)](-) and [EMIm](+)[Tf(2)N](-). The preliminary results presented here clearly demonstrate that it is possible to use the NIR technique not only to characterize aggregation of surfactants in RTILs but also to determine kinetics and to identify products of reactions in RTILs as well as in microreactors provided by micelles in the RTILs.

Abstract
The thermotropic sphere-to-rod transition of nonionic surfactants was characterized in terms of a large set of parameters: the transition temperature and width, the partial volume, coefficient of thermal volume expansion, enthalpy, isobaric heat capacity, and structural parameters, such as radius of gyration and hydrodynamic radius. Data were recorded as a function of concentration of surfactants in H2O and in D2O. To this end, pressure perturbation calorimetry (PPC), small angle neutron scattering (SANS), dynamic light scattering (DLS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) were applied in a study of aqueous solutions containing myristyl, tridecyl, and lauryl maltoside and heptaethyleneglycoltetradecyl ether (C14EO7). Small changes in the thermodynamic and volumetric parameters (e.g., the partial volume change is approximately +2 per thousand) are discussed in detail as the result of three effects governing the transition. (i) Reduction of the water accessible hydrophobic surface area (ASA(ap)) drives the transition. (ii) Shrinking in headgroup size by thermal dehydration triggers the transition. (iii) Hypothesized gradual ordering of the chains may control the effect of chain length on the transition.

Abstract
The enthalpies of micellization of the surfactant series benzyl(2-acylaminoethyl)dimethylammonium chlorides, RABzMe(2)Cl, have been determined by calorimetry and conductivity measurements in the temperature range 15-75 degrees C. Here R stands for an acyl group containing 10-16 carbon atoms and A, Bz, and Me stand for NH(CH(2))(2)N(+), benzyl, and methyl groups, respectively. The enthalpy of micellization, DeltaH(mic) degrees , and the critical micelle concentration, cmc, were calculated directly from calorimetric data. The free energy of micellization, DeltaG(mic) degrees , was obtained from the cmc and the conductance-based degree of counterion dissociation. There is an excellent agreement between DeltaG(mic) degrees calculated from the data of both techniques, but the DeltaH(mic) degrees , the entropy of micellization, values differ. The dependence of the thermodynamic parameters of micellization on the chain length of the hydrophobic group and on the temperature has been analyzed by considering the delicate balance between the factors that contribute to micelle formation, including transfer of the surfactant hydrocarbon chain from the aqueous environment to the micelle, with concomitant release of the solvating water molecules, and the effect of temperature on the structure of water. DeltaG(mic) degrees is more negative, that is, more favorable for RABzMe(2)Cl than for the structurally related alkylbenzyldimethylammonium chlorides. This is attributed to direct and water-mediated H bonding between the amide groups of molecules of the former series.

Abstract
The influence of salt, temperature, and deuterium oxide on the self-aggregation of n-nonyl-beta-D-glucoside (beta-C9G1) in dilute solution has been investigated by static and dynamic light scattering, neutron scattering, and tensiometry. Scattering data show that the micelles can be described as relatively stiff, elongated structures with a circular cross section. With a decrease of temperature, the micelles grow in one dimension, which makes it surprising that the critical micelle concentration (cmc) shows a concomitant increase. On the other hand, substitution of D2O for H2O causes a large increase in micelle size at low temperatures, without any appreciable effect on cmc. With increasing temperature, the deuterium effect on the micelle size diminishes. The effects of salt on the micelle size and cmc were found to follow the Hofmeister series. Thus, at constant salt concentration, the micelle size decreased according to the sequence SO4(2-) > Cl- > Br- > NO3- > I- > SCN-, whereas the effect on cmc displays the opposite trend. Here, I- and SCN are salting-in anions. Similarly, the effects of cations decrease with increasing polarizability in the sequence Li+ > Na+ > K+ > Cs+. At high ionic strength, the systems separate into two micellar phases. The results imply that the size of beta-C9G1 micelles is extremely sensitive to changes in the headgroup size. More specifically, temperature and salt effects on effective headgroup size, including intermolecular interactions and water ofhydration, are suggested to be more decisive for the micelle morphology than the corresponding effects on unimer solubility.

Abstract
The thermal properties of various mixtures of two nonionic surfactants, decyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO10) and dodecyldimethylphosphine oxide (APO12) and two phospholipids, dimyristoylphosphatidyl choline (DMPC) and dipalmitoylphosphatidyl choline (DPPC), were examined by differential scanning calorimetry at various mole fractions. The addition of APO12 to DMPC multilamellar vesicles lowered the temperature of the main transition, produced considerable broadening, and eliminated the pre-transition. Phase separation, as evidenced by the existence of a cloud point, T(cp), occurred when the mole fraction of APO12, with respect to DMPC was 0.58 and above. A small abrupt increase in heat capacity was observed at, or slightly above, the cloud point of APO12 and all mixed micelle solutions. It appeared that mixed micelles coexisted with mixed bilayers when the mole fraction was between 0.58 and 0.75 and perhaps as low as a mole ratio of 0.32. All of the mixtures, except APO12/DMPC, exhibited a clear endotherm below the temperature corresponding to the cloud point, which likely reflects the growth in micellar size. Overlapping chain length dependent endothermic peaks, perhaps resulting from reorganization and/or continued association of the micelles, were observed above the cloud point for all of the mixtures except for APO10/DMPC solutions. However, solutions of mixed micelles consisting of APO10/DMPC with mole fractions of surfactant between 0.81 and 0.93 portrayed a broad unidentified exotherm of about 2+/-1 kcal/mol, which was centered nearly 10-20 degrees C above the cloud point.

Abstract
The SecA ATPase drives the processive translocation of the N terminus of secreted proteins through the cytoplasmic membrane in eubacteria via cycles of binding and release from the SecYEG translocon coupled to ATP turnover. SecA forms a physiological dimer with a dissociation constant that has previously been shown to vary with temperature and ionic strength. We now present data showing that the oligomeric state of SecA in solution is altered by ligands that it interacts with during protein translocation. Analytical ultracentrifugation, chemical cross-linking, and fluorescence anisotropy measurements show that the physiological dimer of SecA is monomerized by long-chain phospholipid analogues. Addition of wild-type but not mutant signal sequence peptide to these SecA monomers redimerizes the protein. Physiological dimers of SecA do not change their oligomeric state when they bind signal sequence peptide in the compact, low temperature conformational state but polymerize when they bind the peptide in the domain-dissociated, high-temperature conformational state that interacts with SecYEG. This last result shows that, at least under some conditions, signal peptide interactions drive formation of new intermolecular contacts distinct from those stabilizing the physiological dimer. The observations that signal peptides promote conformationally specific oligomerization of SecA while phospholipids promote subunit dissociation suggest that the oligomeric state of SecA could change dynamically during the protein translocation reaction. Cycles of SecA subunit recruitment and dissociation could potentially be employed to achieve processivity in polypeptide transport.

Abstract
The energetics of phospholipid aggregation depend on the apparent water-accessible apolar surface area (ASAap), ordering effects of the chains, and headgroup interactions. We quantify the enthalpy and entropy of these interactions separately. For that purpose, the thermodynamics of micelle formation of lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs, chains C10, C12, C14, and C16) and diacylphosphatidylcholines (DAPCs, chains C5, C6) and C7) are studied using isothermal titration calorimetry. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values are 90, 15, and 1.9 mM (C5-C7-DAPC) and 6.8, 0.71, 0.045, and 0.005 mM (LPCs). The group contributions per methylene of DeltaDeltaG(0) = -3.1 kJ/mol and DeltaDeltaC(P) = -57 J/(mol. K) for LPCs agree with literature data on hydrocarbons and amphiphiles. An apparent deviation of DAPCs (-2.5 kJ/mol, 45 J/(mol. K)) is due to an intramolecular interaction between the two chains, burying 20% of the surface. The chain/chain interaction enthalpies in a micelle core are by approximately -2 kJ/(mol) per methylene group more favorable than in bulk hydrocarbons. We conclude that the impact of the chain conformation and packing on the interaction enthalpy is very pronounced. It serves to explain a variety of effects reported on membrane binding. Interactions within the water-accessible region show considerable DeltaH, but almost no DeltaG(0). The heat capacity changes suggest about three methylene groups (ASAap approximately 100 A2) per LPC remain exposed to water in a micelle (DAPC: 2 CH2/70 A2).
