Abstract
The rigid‐sphere theory of liquids is shown to yield an expression for the surface tension of a one‐component liquid which is essentially identical to an expression previously derived by the author employing a qualitative approach. Such a correlation suggests that the rigid‐sphere theory of liquids approach is applicable to a wide variety of nonpolar polymeric liquids.Keywords
