Short summary
To study the growth/shrinking of a hygroscopic nanoparticle during hydration/dehydration in an atmosphere of water vapour we employed a thermodynamic approach. For application to a nanometric sodium chloride particle we extended the original approach and demonstrated how the solution/solute interface energy and the correlation length of a thin solution film can be determined from a combination of experimentally determinable efflorescence and deliquescence humidities with the present calculus.
