A rigid steel container is partially filled with a liquid at 15 atm. The volume of the liquid is 1.23200 L. At a pressure of 30 atm, the volume of the liquid is 1.23100 L. Find the average bulk modulus of elasticity of the liquid over that given range of pressure if the temperature after compression is allowed to return to its initial value. What is the coefficient of compressibility (β)?
