Reply to the comment on 'Do molecules as small as Neopentane induce a hydrophobic response similar to that of large hydrophobic surfaces?

Molecular dynamics was used to compute radical and orientational distribution functions of water molecules around the different molecules: argon, methane and neopentane. It was found that the orientational distribution of water molecules on a narrow shell proximate to the neopentane molecule was very similar to that near a paraffin wall, in contrast to argon and methane.
