Using the molecular-field approximation for the lattice gas model in terms of a spin-one Ising model, we construct phase diagrams and show when the transition could be of first or second order. Possible relevance to the theoretical models of phase transitions in monolayers of amphipatic molecules is also discussed.

Lattice theories have been used extensively to predict and correlate liquid-liquid equilibria in mixtures. Lattice theories also have been used to predict the behavior of gases adsorbing onto solid surfaces. Here, we use a lattice model based on the ideas of Ono and Kondo to predict the phase behavi
model of a lattice gas is considered in which molecules interact via three kinds of forces: short-ranged intra-molecular magnetic (producing a net magnetic moment per particle), longranged magnetic between those moments and finally long-ranged non-magnetic. Using the molecular field approximation fo
