An analytic form for Henry's constant is derived and applied to several systems. The derivation is based on the use of Leonard-Henderson-Barker perturbation theory for a square well pair potential assuming the Ponce-Renon analytical solution of the square well fluid. Computed values of Henry's constants for CH4-Ar, CH4-N2, CH4-He, CH4-H2, C2H6-N2 and C2H6-CH4 mixtures are compared with experiment. The agreement is quite satisfactory, with mean relative deviations between 2.5 and 8 per cent. Heats of solutions are also computed and compared with experiment.

A general functional Taylor expansion of the Helmholtz free energy and radial distribution function is derived for fluids and fluid mixtures. This gives rise to some known results for particular choices of expansion functional. The results are presented in a form convenient for numerical computation, and some calculations of g(r) for the fluid with potential u(r) = 4ε(σ/r)12 are presented. It is suggested that the present formalism may be useful for molecules with nonspherical pair potentials, and some new results are obtained for mixtures of such molecules.

A special free energy function is defined for a solution in the osmotic equilibrium with pure solvent. The partition function of the solution is derived at the McMillan-Mayer level and it is related to this special function in the same manner as the common partition function of the system to its Helmholtz free energy.
