A semitheoretical expression for partial molar volumes at infinite dilution
of aqueous nonelectrolyte solutes has been developed employing the collect
ion of properties from fluctuation solution theory for use over wide ranges
of temperature and pressure. The form of the solution expression was sugge
sted by a comparison of solute/solvent and solvent/solvent direct correlati
on function integrals (DCFI). The selection of solvent density and compress
ibility as model variables provides a correct description in the critical r
egion while second virial coefficients have been used to give a rigorous ex
pression in the low density region. The formulation has been integrated to
obtain analytic expressions for thermodynamic properties of hydration at su
percritical temperatures. The equation is limited to solutes for which B-12
(the second cross virial coefficient between water and a solute molecule)
is known or can be estimated. Regression of the three remaining parameters
gives good correlations of the available experimental data. A strategy for
estimating these parameters allows prediction from readily available data.
