20. The process of transfer of surfactant tails between the reference state of the molecules (bulk aqueous environment) and the Gibbs monolayer involves the use of an intermediate state corresponding to bulk hydrocarbon.9 The configurational free energy describes the transfer of tails from bulk hydrocarbon to the confined environment of the interface.

27. The use of the macroscopic interfacial tension is justified, in part, by evaluation of the configurational free energy term. This term "corrects" the macroscopic interfacial tension for the effects of confinement of chains within the monolayer (see discussion in refs 9 and 10).
28. fc greater than 30 kJ/molecule does not substantially change the calculated contribution of the configurational term to the Gibbs free energy of the monolayer.
