A perturbed hard‐sphere equation of state is used to calculate the solubility of liquid water in compressed air at pressures up to 40 MPa. The proposed model does not require the knowledge of ternary data and is generally applicable to the calculation of the solubility of polar or associating liquids in non polar gases.
