In this review the authors consider recent studies of isotope effects (IE's) on the physical properties of solution, such as vapor pressure, molar volume, compressibility, etc. Such IE's are of interest for two reasons: first, because they can sometimes be capitalized to separation processes, and samples of separated isotopes may be scientifically and commercially valuable and second, and more importantly to use, because the sign and magnitude of condensed phase isotope effects (CPIE's) are closely related to the nature of the intermolecular forces in liquids and solutions. Thus, appropriate IE data can probe the nature of molecular interaction and structure. 91 refs.
