Separate fits of nonpolar solvation MFs were performed as follows: Attractive, a comparison of attractive implicit (Eq. 12) and attractive explicit; Repulsive, a comparison of repulsive implicit (Eq. 7) and repulsive explicit; and Total, a comparison of the total implicit (Eq. 18) and total explicit nonpolar MFs. Where applicable, standard errors are presented in parentheses; 99% confidence intervals are presented in brackets.
