Abstract: We show that disorder is not a great obstacle for calculating thermodynamic properties of liquids. We discuss recent experimental, theoretical and modelling results related to excitations in liquids, and demonstrate how these data help to understand liquid thermodynamics. An important insight is the understanding that changes of thermodynamic properties of liquids are governed only by its average interatomic separation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
