An open-end mercury manometer was connected to a flask containing a gas at unknown pressure. The mercury in the arm open to the atmospheric pressure was 76mm lower tha the mercury in the arm connected to the flask. The atmospheric pressure 749 torr. What was the Pressure of the gas in the flask in Pascal?
