### Question 12 of 16

A gas exerts a pressure of 625 atmospheres (atm). What is this pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg)?

\[ P =  \, \text{mmHg} \]

### Explanation

This question involves converting pressure units from atmospheres (atm) to millimeters of mercury (mmHg). The conversion factor is 1 atm = 760 mmHg. To find the equivalent pressure in mmHg, multiply the given pressure in atm by 760.

### Calculation

\[ P = 625 \, \text{atm} \times 760 \, \frac{\text{mmHg}}{\text{atm}} \]

Complete the calculation to determine the answer.
