The exchange contribution, Π{sub 1}(k, 0), to the static dielectric function in the electron liquid is evaluated exactly. Expression for it is derived analytically in terms of one quadrature. The expression, as presented in Eq. (3) in the Introduction, turns out to be very simple. A fully explicit expression (with no more integral in it) for Π{sub 1}(k, 0) is further developed in terms of series. Equation (3) is proved to be equal to the expression obtained before under some mathematical assumption by Engel and Vosko [Phys. Rev. B 42, 4940 (1990)], thus in the meanwhile putting the latter on a rigorous basis. The expansions of Π{sub 1}(k, 0) at the wavevectors of k = 0, k = 2k{sub F}, and at limiting large k are derived. The results all verify those obtained by Engel and Vosko.
