In 5.35 in the book , I keep getting the wrong answer for part B. Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong? The answer is K= 1.54x10^-2 but I keep getting 1.63x10^-2
You’re supposed to use bar for pressure , right? I think that’s what the book said. I attached a pic of my work

I got something similar to you as well when doing 5.35, I think its simply due to the fact that in the solutions manual they use 18 Kpa instead of 17.5 Kpa, since your answer is so close to the answer they give.
