Table 2.

The Lennard-Jones parameters associated with the (vacuum) interactions of the methane-like hydrophobes are given below.39 Importantly, the mixing rules invoke the Lennard-Jones parameters of the fully-atomistic water model utilized in the optimization of the spherically-symmetric water model.35
