Second virial coefficient of mixtures

The theoretical foundations of these rules are, however, rather weak the first one is supposed to result from a formula derived by London for dispersion forces between unlike molecules, the validity of which is actually restricted to distances much larger than r the second one would only be true for molecules acting as rigid spheres. Many authors tried to check the validity of the combination rules by measuring the second virial coefficients of mixtures. It seems that within the experimental accuracy (unfortunately not very high) both rules are roughly verified.24... [Pg.136]
