LIST OF CORRECTIONS TO FIRST PRINTING OF 6TH EDITION

• Page 17, Pbs. 1.7 and 1.8: The atmospheric-pressure values should be 101.78 kPa and 29.86(in Hg), respectively.

• Page 37, Subheading 2.9: Font errors.

• Page 62, Subheading 3.1: Font errors.

• Page 120, Pb. 3.56(b): The equation number at the end of the last line should be (3.38).
• Page 137, Section heading 4.6: The symbol preceding H ◦ should be
.
• Page 152, Pb. 4.27(b): The first word is ”Determine”.

• Page 186, Replace the line following Eq. (5.42) with the following:
<Boltzman’s constant k equals R/N A . The entropy difference between states 1 and 2 is:>

• Page 215, First line below Eq. (6.65): Delete ”and h”.
• Page 236, Pb. 6.12: The equation number should be (3.40).

• Page 287, Delete the 8.1 at the end of Eq. (8.1).

• Page 311, Footnote 2: The kJ per hour value should be 12,660.
