19Concept Connnection 1.2Grammar error. "...a small square represent AN (not at) atom..."Lutz9/4/2012 9:27:18 PMText
2A-1675Answer given in the appendix for problem 75 should be 13 cubic inches not 21 cubic inches.Lutz9/4/2012 9:40:44 PMText
3A-43For More Practice 3.22The answer shows lead(II) chloride in the balanced chemical equation. It should have lead(II) nitrate as the starting material.Lutz11/7/2012 3:10:18 PMText
416349bThere is either an error in this problem or in the solubility table on p. 141. The solubility table on p. 141 indicates MgS is insoluble. This problem makes it appear that MgS is soluble. In reality, MgS decomposes when placed into water.Lund10/10/2013 12:09:29 PMText
5174below equation [5.2]"...where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume of the gas and P1 and V2 are the final pressure and volume..." should be changed to "...where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume of the gas and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume..."Lutz11/7/2012 3:21:28 PMText
6239Table 6.5Standard Enthalpy of Formation for H2O (l) incorrect. Should be -285.8 kJ, NOT 2285.8 kJLund4/12/2013 11:25:55 AMText
6245 and A20Problem 3The answer in the appendix is writen in scientific notation but does not include a decimal point.Lutz12/20/2013 1:07:13 PMText
6A-2023Change in energy is listed in J when it should be in kJ.Lutz12/10/2012 12:51:49 PMText
6A-43For more Practice 6.6Choice (c) correctly states that burning gasoline is exothermic, but the sign for the enthalpy change should be negative for an exothermic reaction.Lutz11/7/2012 3:02:59 PMText
71197.15Calculation uses wrong velocity for the electron and miss-converts from meters to nm.Lutz11/29/2014 1:55:40 PMSolutions Manual
7A-44For Practice 7.6 (b)In the answer key the "l" value is given as -1. "l" cannot be negative.Lutz12/10/2012 12:55:18 PMText
9333Halfway down pageThe book shows bonding in chlorine gas using two dots or a line. However, when they convert to a line they do not remove the two dots so it appears they are sharing 4 electrons.Lutz12/12/2012 8:49:37 PMText
10389Table 10.3Tetrahedral geometries require sp3 hybridized orbitalsLutz12/22/2012 9:38:43 AMText
16663Answer 16.1 Conceptual ConnectionThe explanation is unclear (although correct). d is the only buffer solution. a and c are eliminated due to not having conjugates. b is not a buffer because HNO3 is a strong acid.Lutz4/1/2013 9:53:35 AMText
