Abstract
A comparison is made between fully microscopic models of an ionic solution in a dipolar solvent, in which the solvent as well as the solute is treated on a molecular basis, and quasimacroscopic models, in which the solvent is treated as an ideal continuum. The central objects of inquiry are the molecular potentials of mean force, especially the ion-ion potential in the limit of infinite solute dilution.
