N2 - For the case of direct spherical micelles, two nanostructural models of molecular aggregates have been discussed: the classical drop model implying flexibility of hydrocarbon chains of molecules and their full immersion into the hydrocarbon core of an aggregate, and a quasi-drop model allowing partial outcropping of the chains in the strainless state from the core. For the sake of simplicity, a solution is assumed to contain only a single surfactant whose molecules possess only one, unbranched hydrocarbon radical. Within the frames of the models, the behavior of the chemical potential of surfactant molecules in a primicellar and micellar molecular aggregate has been analyzed, as well as the work of formation of the molecular aggregate as a function of the aggregation number and the solution concentration.
