A quantum statistical expression is given for the pressure of multi‐component plasmas which is correct up to the second cluster coefficient. The Montroll‐Ward formula for the pressure is evaluated for any degree of degeneration. As an example the thermodynamic stability of an electronhole plasma is discussed.
