✦ Synopsis
NPT-ensemble Monte Carlo simulations on dilute aqueous solutions of neon are performed using a number of different intermolecular potentials. The enthalpy of hydration and the partial molar specific volume are shown to be more sensitive to the details of the interaction potential than is the free energy. The importance of the use. of a wide range of thermodynamic data in discriminating between potential surfaces is stressed. Our results differ from those obtained previously for the MCY potential using the NVT ensemble, verifying that properties are insensitive to the water-water potential used.
