caed for this question.
A student reads a barometer in the laboratory and finds the prevailing atmospheric pressure to be 731 mm Hg. Express this
pressure in atmospheres, kilopascals, torrs, pounds per square inch, and pascals.
Hint: 1 atm
101.3 kPa = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 14.69 psi = 1.013*10Pa

Answer:

0.962 atm.

97.4 kPa.

731 torr.

14.1 psi.

97,434.6 Pa.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, given the available factors equaling 1 atm of pressure, each required pressure turns out:

- Atmospheres: 1 atm = 760 mmHg:

[tex]p=731mmHg*\frac{1atm}{760mmHg} =0.962atm[/tex]

- Kilopascals:: 101.3 kPa = 760 mmHg:

[tex]p=731mmHg*\frac{101.3kPa}{760mmHg} =97.4kPa[/tex]

- Torrs: 760 torr = 760 mmHg:

[tex]p=731mmHg*\frac{760 torr}{760mmHg} =731 torr[/tex]

- Pounds per square inch: 14.69 psi = 760 mmHg:

[tex]p=731mmHg*\frac{14.69}{760mmHg} =14.1psi[/tex]

- Pascals: 101300 Pa = 760 mmHg:

[tex]p=731mmHg*\frac{101300Pa}{760mmHg} \\\\p=97,434.6Pa[/tex]

Best regards.
