Answer to Problem 6.18E

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg is equal to 0.957atm.

Explanation of Solution

The relation between inchHg and atm is as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg

The given pressure of 28.6in.Hg can be converted to atm as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg1in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg28.6in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg×28.6in.Hg=0.957atm

Conclusion

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg28.6 is equal to 0.957atm.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg is to be converted to torr.

Concept introduction:

The mathematical expressions used to demonstrate the behavior of gases are known as gas laws. These expressions are used under the several changes like temperature, pressure etc. The use of these expressions helps to understand the behavior of gases changing under a particular condition.

Answer to Problem 6.18E

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg is equal to 727torr.

Explanation of Solution

The relation between inchHg and atm is as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg

The relation between torr and atm is as follows.

1atm=760torr

Use above two relations and calculate the given pressure in torr as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg1in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg×760torr1atm28.6in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg×760torr1atm×28.6in.Hg=727torr

Conclusion

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg is equal to 727torr.

Answer to Problem 6.18E

The pressure of 28.6in.Hg is equal to 14.1psi.

Explanation of Solution

The relation between inchHg and atm is as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg

The relation between psi and atm is as follows.

1atm=14.7psi

Use above two relations and calculate the given pressure in psi as follows.

1atm=29.9in.Hg1in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg×14.7psi1atm28.6in.Hg=1atm29.9in.Hg×14.7psi1atm×28.6in.Hg=14.1psi
