The osmotic pressures of aqueous solutions of small non-electrolytes, namely ethane-1,2-diol, propane-1,2,3-triol, sucrose and raffinose , were found to be expressible by quadratic equations of the molar concentration, which indicate that these aqueous systems involve no term higher than the second virial coefficient A2. Analysis has shown that A2 mainly does not arise from non-ideality of the aqueous solutions, but its magnitude depends on the partial molar volume of the solute, more precisely on the molecular weight or van der Waals radius or volume of the solute in the aqueous solution.

It has been shown that in light scattering experiments with polymers replacement of a solvent by a solvent mixture causes problems due to preferential adsorption of one of the solvents. The present paper extends this theory to be applicable to any angle of observation and any concentration by using the random phase approximation theory proposed by de Gennes. The corresponding formulas provide expressions for molecular weight, gyration radius, and the second virial coefficient, which enables measurements of these quantities provided enough information on molecular and thermodynamic quantities is available.
