We show that in the mean spherical approximation for a mixture of arbitrary size and charge hard ions in a dipolar solvent all the properties are expressible in terms of three parameters; a screening parameter Γ, a ion-dipole interaction parameter B10, and a dipole–dipole interaction parameter b2, which are given by the solution of a set of algebraic equations. In the case of equal ionic size, the solution is quite simple and very similar to previous results which the size of ion are equal to the size of dipole (σ=σn=1). In the low density and high coupling limits, explicit results are given for the three parameters and for the thermodynamics. The calculations show that the model becomes the primitive model for infinite dilution and vanishingly small solvent molecules.
