Dates that corrections are posted are shown at the end of each line.

Table of Contents

  • pg xvi, E.12, 'ou' should be 'uo' in Tetrafluoroethane (12/30/15)

Chapter 1

  • pg 22, Eqn. 1.18 ...  = -2mv(v/4L)= -mv2/2L (12/11/12)

Chapter 2

  • pg 42, Eqn. 2.6, in the last argument on the right, V should not be underlined, nor have a dot above. (2/4/16)
  • pg 55, Example 2.4, reference to 100 MPa should be replaced with 5MPa and,
     VLΔP = 1.002 cm3/g(5 MPa - 0.00234 MPa) = 5.008 MPa-cm3/g for 5 MPa
    ... ΔH = (5.008 MPa-cm3/g) ·(8.314 J/mole-K)/(8.314 MPa-cm3/mole-K) = 5.008 kJ/kg (1/27/13)
  • pg 64, Eqn. 2.51 should say: Assume ideal gas behavior if P< Psat and Tr > 0.5 + 2Pr.  (2/9/16)
  • pg 81, In the 2nd line below the general equation with the scratches through terms, the energy balance should be d(nU)  = -Houtdnout = Hdn. (3/16/12)
  • pg 87, center line of table, isobaric work is not dependent on (ig). (7/3/13)
  • pg 90, P2.19 solution, (a) 12.5 MPa, (b) 17 kJ. (12/4/14)

Chapter 3

  • pg 102, Fig. 3.3, both equations for Qcond should include a minus sign since heat is removed. (1/16/13)
  • pg 117, 3rd line of the example, the equation should read -221 -285.8 -2(-249.4) = -8; the + in the text should be a -. (1/25/12)
  • pg 117, part (c). The heat capacities for vapor and liquid were switched when calculating the steps. The results should be (A) –215.7 + 2.4 –30.2 + 3.3 = –240.2 kJ/mol; (MO) –178.3 + 17.3 – 42.7 – 11.6 = –215.3 kJ/mol; (W) –241.9 + 2.5 – 40.7 – 1.5 = –281.6 kJ/mol. This results in Q = (20(–240.2) + 40(–215.3) + 40(–281.6)) – 100(–240.2) = –660 kJ/h. One reason that parts (a) - (c) result in such different heat transfer is that the difference in the heat of formation of vapor and liquid MO at 25C matches the heat of vaporization at the normal boiling point and the difference would be expected to be larger. When a discrepancy like this arises in the overall heat transfer using different methods, the engineer should research the source of the thermochemical data and/or make measurements and/or design for the worst case. (2/28/12)

(2/5/16)
  • pg 151, Example 4.6, second line, Compute the change in enthalpy entropy…(7/24/14)
  • pg 156, Eqn. above 4.37, Sgen,W should be Sgen,wall (12/30/15)
  • pg 163, Example 4.12, In the second and third line, the T for the Cp should be given as 1273K. Cp = 44.37 J/mol, R/Cp ~ 8.314/44.37 = 0.1874. Then (1.1)^(-0.1874)=0.9823 -> T2 = 1273(0.9823) = 1250.5K. (7/24/14).
  • pg 167, Fig. 4.8, caption should say ‘showing lines of constant temperature and pressure’. (2/7/13)
  • pg 172, Example 4.15, line 5 would be better expressed as: (3/21/12)
    ...Then WS = –923.5; q' = (8.0041 − 0.6492)/7.4996 = 0.9807;
    So H1' = 191.8 + 0.9807(2392)=2537.6; WS' = 2537.6 − 3483.4 = –945.8;
    Wlost = 945.8 – 923.5 = 22.3; ηE = –923.5/(–923.5 – 22.3) = 97.7%.

  • pg 248, problem 4.1 should be moved to 6.1. problem 6.1 (ie. for CO2) should then say, ...Consider the vibration at eq/k = 952K (546cm–1).
    (a) Plot Cvig/R versus T for CO2 in the range 200–400 K using NIST Webbook data. Plot the polynomial expression in the back of the book on the same chart as a dashed line.

    The ideal gas part (549) is 14% as large in magnitude as the State 2 departure function (–4030) for this calculation. Clearly, State 2 is not an ideal gas.

  • pg 364, problem 9.14, perform the calculations at 80oC. (11/27/12)
  • pg 365, problem 9.18. Because problem 7.18 was changed, this problem does not make sense. An updated pdf of the page is available. Click here. (2/20/12)

Chapter 10

  • pg 373, Table 10.1, FL and FA Criteria. The 1 in the denominator should not have a subscript (1/27/13)
  • pg 374, first paragraph, last line, the iterative methods are covered in online supplements rather than appendix A. (4/11/12)
  • pg 378, last paragraph, second/third line, V/F is the vapor-to-feed ratio. (3/11/13)
  • pg 379, Eqn. 10.17 The Ki terms in the denominator should be K1and K2 respectively. (3/11/13)
  • pg 386, Ex10.2, a revised page is available, click here. Solution2, 2nd paragraph... We begin by finding the enthalpy of the feed relative to the elements at 25C, noting that it is a liquid ideal solution. HF = HL(70) = Σ(xi*(ΔHof,i+Cpig*(T-TR)-ΔHivap)) = 0.5*(-200940+5.28*8.314*(70-25)-35976) + .5*(-234950+7.88*8.314*(70-25)-38595) = -252769. This takes care of the first term in Eqn. 10.19. Noting that the feed is liquid and the temperature drop is small, we might suspect the flash to be mostly liquid. Performing a bubble-temperature calculation at 200 mmHg gives T=40.00C and HL(40) = -256901 such that  and with no vapor stream results in Q = -4132 J/mol. The temperature must be slightly higher to move Q toward zero. Suppose we “guessed” that the temperature is 40.23C. Then the flash calculation gives xE = 0.5173, yE = 0.3516, V/F = 0.1042, HL(40.23)= -257,502. The formula for HV is similar to that for HL but omits the HiVap contribution and replaces xi with yi, so HV(40.23) = -212,088. Following Eqn. 10.19, Q = (1-0.1042)*(-257502) + 0.1042*(-212088) + 252769 = -0.1 J/mol. We may assume that -0.1 J/mol is sufficiently close to zero.
  • pg389, Eqn. 10.31, the LFL should be divided by 100 since it is in percent, Σ(yi/(LFLi/100))=1. (5/16/12)
  • pg 399, Table, first column, minus missing from -SdT for dA and dG. Also, last column should include extensive variables and {ni} for open systems. (8/6/18)
  • pg 402, Eqn. 10.56, before last summation, replace R with RT. (12/30/15)
  • pg 408, problem 10.6, the flash drum should be at 0.05 MPa.(10/2/12)

Chapter 11

  • pg 417, example 11.2, 2nd line should reference Fig 11.1. (4/18/17)
  • pg 423, last paragraph before Section 11.3, line 4, "In Section 13.1..." should be "In Section 12.5..." (12/30/15)
  • pg 432, Table 11.2, last column, subscript errors: (1) row for Margules two parameter, flip subscripts to read A12 = B12-C12; (2) row for Margules one parameter, last row should read A12 = A21 = B12. (4/6/22)
  • pg 456, problem 11.4, mention of Scatchard-Hildebrand is premature. Change "Assume the Scatchard-Hildebrand model is to be applied." to "The two-parameter Margules model is to be applied with A12 = 1.85, A21 = 1.64." (2/20/12)
  • pg 458, problem 11.11, first line: replace P-x-y with T-x-y. (8/21/12)
  • pg 460, problem 11.23 should say, "Assume MAB solution thermodynamics with GE/RT=ΣΣxixjAij..." (1/27/13)
  • pg 460, problem 11.25. The table is superfluous and will be deleted in subsequent printings. (2/20/12)
  • pg 462, problem 11.28(c), make a separate plot instead of adding to the same plot.(11/27/12)

  • pg 528-530, Nc has been changed to Nc (using subsript c) to be consistent with earlier sections of chapter 13. On pg 529, statements 6w and 6u, the summation variable should be j but it is chopped off and looks like i. (3/3/12).
  • pg 534, problem 13.6 should reference problem 10.14. (2/20/12)
  • pg 535, problem 13.7 should reference Section 10.5 instead of problem 10.14. (2/20/12)
  • pg 535, problem 13.10, reference to an equation of state is premature. The problem is revised to use only UNIFAC. An updated pdf of the page is available. Click here. (2/20/12)
    Original wording, 1st printing:
    13.10 Activity coefficients are an implicit part of the equation of state but they can be determined explicitly by comparing the definitions of the K-ratios. Using the kij value fit at xe = 0.415, compute the activity coefficients implied by the Peng-Robinson equation for the benzene + ethanol system and compare them with the UNIFAC values and the values determined from the experimental data of Brown and Smith (1954) cited in problem 10.2, using plots of activity coefficient versus composition.
    Revised wording:
    13.10 Consider the experimental data of Brown and Smith (1954) cited in problem 10.2. Prepare a P-x-y plot and a plot of experimental activity coefficients vs. composition. Then use UNIFAC to predict the activity coefficients across the composition range and add the calculations to the plots.

  • pg 718, five lines below Eqn. 18.59, change wording to become "OnFrom the right-hand side, the term 5E-3 on the left side dominates at all pH < 6. Solutions at high pH are impossible because the decreasing rightleft-hand side is too small to balance the value of 5E-3 plus increasing concentrations of the negative phosphate and hydroxide ions in the balanceproton conditon. Therefore, the solution must be at low pH where the concentration of negative phosphate and hydroxide ions in the proton condition are balance issmall. "(10/7/12)
  • pg 726, last two lines of Example 18.8, should read "thus the total solubility is 2.94(0.018) = 0.0529 mol/L, or 0.0529(306.27) = 16.2 g/L." (4/25/12)
  • pg 728, just above Eqn. 18.85, strike the words, 'exergonic reactions' and 'endergonic reactions'. Whether a reaction is exergonic or endergonic is based on the standard state value, but the actual direction depends on ΔG, not ΔGo. (3/3/12)
  • pg 730, Example 18.9, first paragraph of solution, last line, replace 'loosing' with 'losing'. (2/8/12)

Chapter 19

  • pg 776, improve wording. First, in reference to systems that can only solvate (not associate), the observed activity coefficients of A must be less than one because xAM< xoAMxA when B is present. Second, for systems in which one component A associates and B the other can neither associate nor solvate, the observed activity coefficients for A must be greater than one because xAM> xoAMxA when B is present owing to the interference of B with A from dilution.
