Typos in Atkins 9e

by Jonathan Gutow last modified Apr 06, 2011 09:27 AM

Typos found in Atkins 9e starting Fall 2010

  • Fundamental Constants list:
    • c = 2.99792458 x 108 m/s while the book has c = 2.99792558 x 108 m/s
  • Exercise a solutions:
    • 17.11(a): should be 0.14 J/mol
  • Odd problem solutions:
    • 7.15(d) should be N = (96πa5)-1/2 {the solution given in the text is for xexp(-r/2a) not rexp(-r/2a)}
  • Text:
    • P. 351 eq. 9.37a is missing the frequency factor on the r.h.s. of the second equation.  It should look like the first equation.
  • Exercises
    • 21.10a- the final concentration of 0.020 M is for species B not species A.
