The scaled particle theory (SPT) is applied to describe thermodynamic properties of a hard sphere (HS) fluid in random porous media. To this purpose, we extended the SPT2 approach, which has been developed previously. The analytical expressions for the chemical potential of an HS fluid in HS and overlapping hard sphere (OPH) matrices, sponge matrix, and hard convex body (HCB) matrix are obtained and analyzed. A series of new approximations for SPT2 are proposed. The grand canonical Monte Carlo (GGMC) simulations are performed to verify an accuracy of the SPT2 approach combined with the new approximations. A possibility of mapping between thermodynamic properties of an HS fluid in random porous media of different types is discussed. It is shown that thermodynamic properties of a fluid in the different matrices tend to be equal if the probe particle porosities and the specific surface pore areas of considered matrices are identical. The obtained results for an HS fluid in random porous media as reference systems are used to extend the van der Waals equation of state to the case of a simple fluid in random porous media. It is observed that a decrease of matrix porosity leads to lowering of the critical temperature and the critical density of a confined fluid, while an increase of a size of matrix particles causes an increase of these critical parameters.

A novel method for the assessment of the Ph4As+/Ph4B− assumption for free energies of transfer of single ions has recently been suggested by Treiner, and used by him to deduce that the assumption is not valid for transfers between water, propylene carbonate, sulpholane, dimethylsulphoxide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, and perhaps also dimethylformamide. The basis of the method is the estimation of the free energy of cavity formation by scaled-particle theory, together with the hypothesis that the free energy of interaction of Ph4As+ (or Ph4B−) with solvent molecules is the same in all solvents, ΔGt0(int) = 0. It is shown in the present paper that (a) whether or not the Ph4As+/Ph4B− assumption applies to transfer to a given solvent depends on which other solvent is taken as the reference solvent in Treiner's method, (b) the calculation of the cavity free energy term by scaled-particle theory and by the theory of Sinanoglu – Reisse – Moura Ramos (SRMR) yields values so different that the method cannot be considered reliable, (c) the calculation of cavity enthalpies and entropies for Ph4As+ or Ph4B− by scaled-particle theory yields results that are chemically not reasonable, (d) the hypothesis that ΔGt0(int) = 0 conflicts with SRMR theory, and (e) the conclusions reached by Treiner are not in accord with recent work that in general supports the Ph4As+/Ph4B− assumption for solvents that are rejected by Treiner.
