Abstract

From published H^E^ data for 10 n‐alkane solutions in benzene at 25°C, the three parameters of the author's solution theory have been calculated. The values obtained agree quite well with εΔ = 3068 J/mole, K = 1, and r~σ~ = 0.2 + 0.2 n~c~ = 0.1 n~H~. The problems involved in the extension of these results to higher oligomers of polymethylene and to other solutions of chain molecules are briefly discussed.
