An open-end mercury manometer was connected to a vessel holding a gas at an unknown pressure. The mercury in the arm open to the atmosphere was 10.6 mm higher than the mercury in the arm connected to the flask. The atmospheric pressure was 775.4 torr. What was the pressure of the gas in the flask in torr? Do not include units in your answer. Report your answer to 1 decimal place.
