Chapter 11, Problem 30E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The pressure in different units is to be converted.

Concept introduction:

There are several units of pressure.

$\text{atm}$, $\text{mm Hg}$, $\text{psi}$ and $\text{torr}$ are the units of pressure.

$1\text{ mm Hg}$ is equal to $\text{1 torr}$.

$1\text{ in}\text{. Hg}$ is equal to $\text{25}\text{.4 mm Hg}$.

$\text{ 51}\text{.70068 mm Hg = }1\text{ psi}$

$1\text{ atm = 760 mm Hg}$
