Abstract
The structure factors and pair correlation functions have been calculated for the macroions suspended in water using coulomb attractive potential (CAP) and the results have been compared well with the results obtained from the RMSA and MMSA using screened coulomb potential (SCP). Differences among the values of compressibility in the limit of zero momentum transfer, excess energy per macroion and coordination number for both the potentials have been reported. Liquid like ordering of the FCC type has been obtained using both CAP as well as SCP potentials between suspended macroions.
