Thermodynamics of surface tension: application to electrolyte solution

Abstract

In this contribution to the special issue of the Journal of Statistical Physics dedicated to Michael Fisher on his 70'th birthday, I shall review two thermodynamically distinct routes for obtaining the interfacial tension of liquid-vapor interfaces in mixtures. A specific application to the calculation of the excess surface tension of aqueous electrolyte solutions will be presented.
