We present Monte Carlo results for the high density equation of state and the partial pair distribution functions of semi-dilute solutions of large hard spheres in a solvent of smaller spheres. The simulation data for diameter ratios of 2 : 1 and 3 : 1 agree reasonably well with the predictions of Percus-Yevick theory and its semi-empirical modifications, except for the solute-solute pair distribution function. A free volume analysis of the equation of state data points to the existence of a well defined, concentration dependent, amorphous close packed density which is significantly higher than for a pure hard sphere fluid.
