/**
 *  @file IdealMolalSoln.cpp
 *   ThermoPhase object for the ideal molal equation of
 * state (see \ref thermoprops
 * and class \link Cantera::IdealMolalSoln IdealMolalSoln\endlink).
 *
 * Definition file for a derived class of ThermoPhase that handles variable
 * pressure standard state methods for calculating thermodynamic properties that
 * are further based upon activities on the molality scale. The Ideal molal
 * solution assumes that all molality-based activity coefficients are equal to
 * one. This turns out, actually, to be highly nonlinear when the solvent
 * densities get low.
