    AnnotationThe available pairwise additive intermolecular interaction models used so far in simulations in combination with common combining rules do not seem to be able to reproduce the most distinct feature of aqueous solutions of alcohols, the minimum of the partial molar volume at low alcohol concentrations. Nonetheless, this fundamental failure seems to have been paid little attention to, partly because of very high requirements for accuracy and, hence, CPU time of simulations. As an attempt to go beyond empirical combining rules and account in a more physical and yet simple way for the cross interactions, a feasibility study has been undertaken using a polarizable model of water in molecular simulations of the water–methanol mixture at ambient conditions. It turns out that the inclusion of polarizability may qualitatively change the behavior of the mixture bringing the result in agreement with experiment.
