• p. 32, Prob. 2.15. In Line 3, add "Express g in ft/s²."

• p. 65, Prob. 3.1(c), Line 3. Insert a period after the second word ("stones"). Change the adjacent parenthetical statement to "(A stone is a unit of mass equal to 14 lb_m. It is commonly used in England as a measure of body weight, which like the numerical equivalence between  lb_m  and  lb_f  is only valid at or near sea level.)"

• p. 143, Line 3. Change "nitric acid" to "nitric oxide."

• p. 157, Prob. 4.6(b). Change "mole fractions" to "mass fractions" on Lines 1 and 3.

• p. 171, Prob. 4.41(d), Line 3. Change "part (a)" to "part (b)."

• p. 176, Prob. 4.55.
  -- In Line 3, change "singlepass" to "single-pass."
  -- In Part (b), change "0.0050 kg R/kg" to "0.050 kg R/kg."

• p. 202, bulleted paragraph at the top of the page. Delete everything after the first sentence ("Solution for P...closest to V_ideal.")

• p. 209, Figure 5.4-2. The figure has been misdrawn, with an extra horizontal grid line between z = 0.9 and z = 1.0. The ordinate labels should not be changed, so that the curves still asymptote to z = 1.0 on the left. The resulting errors in reading the value of z for given reduced conditions are on the order of 1-3%.

• p. 230, Prob. 5.55, Line 2. Change 5.3-4 to 5.3-2

• p. 301, Prob. 6.73, "Data on Process Streams" to the right of the flowchart, bottom line: Change G₂ to G₁

• p. 324, figure in Example 7.4-2. The Q arrow should be pointing into the box rather than coming out of it, and there should be dots above Q and W.

• p. 355, Prob. 7.54(b). In the figure, change 3.5 bar to 3.1 bar

• p. 457. In the expression under "Calculate Inlet Enthalpy," the integrand should be (C_p)_C2H5OHdT

• p. 495, Prob. 9.51. In Line 2, add "Assume that the pressure is low enough for all the exiting water to be vapor."

• p. 583, Step 12: On Line 4, change "Step 8" to "Step 9"

• p. 631, Table B.1. The normal boiling point of mercury should be 356.7 (not -356.9). The standard heat of combustion of liquid methanol should be -726.6 (not +726.6)

• p. 632, Table B.1. In the entry for Phosphorus(red), the 0(c) in the next-to-last column belongs to Phosphorus(white) at the top of the next page.

• p. 638, Table B.3. The vapor pressure of water at 18.6^oC should be 16.071, not 16.771.

• p. 656, TY on p. 49, Item 5: 50x10³ mol/h (not 50 kmol/h)

• p. 657, TY on p. 190, Item 1: On Line 3, change 200 g/s to 255 g/s

• p. 658, TY on p. 253, Item 2: On Line 1, change 760 mm Hg to 600 mm Hg

• p. 665, Solution to Problem 4.50: Change 0.875 to 0.877
