Abstract

The group contribution concept proposed by Savage and Wood is used for characterization of hydrophobic hydration. A parameter is proposed to measure hydrophobic hydration that has additive properties and can be applied to both nonelectrolytes and electrolytes. Theoretical and practical arguments are given for its use. The given results are in agreement with the published experimental data and theoretical results concerning hydrophobic hydration and interaction.
