In two papers Zavitsas described a model for the thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions of a single electrolyte or nonelectrolyte (Zavitsas, J Phys Chem B 105:7805–7817, 2001 ; J Solution Chem 39:301–317, 2010 ) in which he assumed that part of the water is so strongly bound to the solute tha...
