(a)
Interpretation:
The pressure of tank in atm should be converted into torr.
Concept Introduction:
A conversion factor is a numerical ratio which is used to show a measurement in one unit as another unit. It is always equal to 1.
Pressure is defined as the force exerted by a gas against the walls of container. The pressure is denoted with symbol "P". The common units which are used to measure pressure are atmosphere (atm), pascal (Pa) etc.
(b)
Interpretation:
The pressure of tank in atm should be converted into lb/in2.
