my answer about your question(solvated electrons)

Solvated electron
A solvated electron is a free electron in (solvated in) a solution, and is the smallest possible anion. Solvated electrons occur widely although they are often not observed directly. The deep color of solutions of alkali metals in ammonia arises from the presence of solvated electrons: blue when dilute and copper-colored when more concentrated (> 3 molar).[1] Classically, discussions of solvated electrons focus on their solutions in ammonia, which are stable for days, but solvated electrons occur in water and other solvents, in fact, any solvent that mediates outer-sphere electron transfer. The solvated electron is responsible for a great deal of radiation chemistry.
