"Mistake" in solutions manual for 10.24(a) in 11th, 13th & 14th ed. and 10.26 in 12th

[robert zellmer]

For 10.24(a) in the 11th, 13th & 14th editions and 10.26(a) in the 12th 
edition of the textbook
states the mercury in the arm attached to the gas is 15.4 mm Hg higher 
than the other arm which
is open to the atmosphere at an atmospheric pressure of 0.985 atm.

In the solution's manual in the first sentence writes it as 15.4 /cm 
/and then 154 mm Hg (torr).
However, then in the solution they actually use it as 15.4 torr (15.4 mm 
Hg as given in the
problem).  Thus, the answer is done correctly based on the pressures 
given in the question.
