→Compute the bulk modulus of water from the following data: Initial volume = $100.0$ litre, Pressure increase = 100.0 atm ($1\ atm = 1.013 × 105 Pa$), Final volume = $100.5$ litre. Compare the bulk modulus of water with that of air (at constant temperature). Explain in simple terms why the ratio is so large.
