What's the correct Pinyin of 空位 and 空座为?
My textbook suggests kong4wei4 and kong1zuo4wei4.
Is it correct? If so, why is there a difference in the tone of 空?

Both tone of this character show the meaning of EMPTY. But as an adj. --
空 [kōng] means nothing inside or on, unfilled. 里面没有东西或没有内容。
空 [kòng] means unused, unoccupied. 没有被利用的，闲置的。
