Comment: A problem in extracting structure information from the temperature of maximum density for aqueous solutions

The shift in the temperature of maximum density for aqueous solutions customarily has been dissected into an ideal and a structural contribution. This analysis demonstrates that the dissection leads to the formulation of an ideal state which is attained by a fortuitous superposition of temperature d...

Description
Summary:The shift in the temperature of maximum density for aqueous solutions customarily has been dissected into an ideal and a structural contribution. This analysis demonstrates that the dissection leads to the formulation of an ideal state which is attained by a fortuitous superposition of temperature dependent properties of pure components and, hence, cannot serve as a reliable reference state for comparing the influence of different solutes upon solution structure.
