This study re-examines the volume correction for non-polar solutes in water. Sharp et al.’s suggestion is shown to be equivalent to defining the standard state based on ideal gas behavior.

Area of Science:

  • Physical Chemistry
  • Chemical Thermodynamics
  • Statistical Mechanics

Background:

  • The standard chemical potential of non-polar solutes in water is crucial for understanding solvation.
  • Previous work by Sharp et al. proposed a volume correction to this potential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To rigorously examine the suggestion by Sharp et al. regarding volume correction for non-polar solutes.
  • To compare their findings with other theoretical approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Re-derivation of Sharp et al.'s results using exact statistical mechanical procedures.
  • Comparison with alternative theoretical schemes.

Main Results:

  • The analysis confirms the validity of Sharp et al.'s suggestion.

  • It is demonstrated that their proposed volume correction is mathematically equivalent to adopting a standard state based on ideal gas behavior.

    • Conclusions:

    • The standard state definition for non-polar solutes in water has significant thermodynamic implications.
    • Statistical mechanical rigor supports the interpretation of Sharp et al.'s correction in terms of ideal gas behavior.
