Ch 15 EOC 15.39 error in e-text

[Zellmer, Robert]

There's a possible error in the e-Text, at least when it comes to comparing it
to the printed version and the solution's manual.  In the printed textbook it
gives the conc. for the problem in millimolar, mM.  That's how it's answered
in the solutions manual.  In the e-Text it lists the conc. in the problem as
molarities, M, and not millimolar.  Based on what the textbook instructs the
conc. should be in molarity and the solutions manual converts the mM to
M before substituting into the expression for Kc.  The conc. should be in
terms of molarity for the expression for Kc.  For the problem in the e-Text
you don't have to convert from mM since it gives the conc. as M.  That
means your answer will be a little different than in the solutions manual.
