margules.

A Margules function is a function added to the Raoult's law description of a liquid solution to account for deviations from ideality
The amended Raoult's law description of the vapor pressure above the solution becomes:
P1=P*1x1fM,1
P2=P*2x2fM,2
The Margules function has the general form:
fM,1 = exp(αx22+βx23+γx23+δx24+...)
The function always contains the opposite mole fraction x2 (= 1-x1 for a binary system). The numbers of Margules parameters α, β, γ, δ, .. varies. The larger the deviations from ideality the more parameters are required.
