title: The application of Shannon's measure of information for a complex chemical system.
abstract: Information theory and, specifically, Shannon's measure of information is used to compare the interaction parameters (beta) in regular solution theory (RST) and Ingram's model for the mixture of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and Triton X-100 (TX100). Results show that beta values from regular solution theory are more accurate than those of Ingram's model. Additionally, the procedure applied in this paper for the calculation of uncertainties in the continuous case, prevents difficulties concerning differential entropy.
