Reviewer 2, comment 2.2: Equation 8 #22

2.2 In equation 8, the variable Aig is the free energy of the ideal gas state. The text must specify that Aig is defined in the same temperature and volume conditions as the liquid. It is thus an imaginary state.

Rich says:

I think ideal gas is defined only at the same temperature, right? The ideal gas has zero density (infinite volume) or at least none of the molecules are interacting. So maybe you just need to define somewhere that Aig is defined as the ideal gas free energy at the same T as A.

Dr Elliott, how do you suggest we respond to this?
