Chapter 5, Problem 21E
A sealed-tube manometer as shown below can be usedto measure pressures below atmospheric pressure. Thetube above the mercury is evacuated. When there is avacuum in the flask, the mercury levels in both arms ofthe U-tube are equal. If a gaseous sample is introducedinto the flask, the mercury levels are different. The differenceh is a measure of the pressure of the gas insidethe flask. If h is equal to 4.75 cm, calculate the pressurein the flask in torr, pascals, and atmospheres.
