<div>The Cu-O radial distribution function (RDF, solid lines, left axes) and the coordination number (CN, dashed lines, right axes) versus the Cu-O distance. (a) The RDF of Cu with all O atoms in the simulation. (b) The RDF of Cu with O atoms in the solvent water (excluding the water molecule in the [CuCl(H<sub>2</sub>O)] clusters, second-shell hydration).</div>
