A typical barometric pressure in Denver, Colorado is 615 mm Hg. What is this pressure in atmospheres and kilopascals (kpa)?

To understand several methods of measuring gas pressure. Gases exert a measurable pressure (P) on the walls of their container. The SI unit for pressure is the pascal (Pa). Other pressure units frequently used in chemistry are millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and atmospheres (atm). You can convert between units of pressure using conversion factors such as those indicated below. 1 atm=760 mmHg=101,325 Pa

Part A

On a rainy day, a barometer reads 737 mmHg . Convert this value to atmospheres.

Express your answer numerically in atmospheres

Part B

A closed container is filled with oxygen. The pressure in the container is 445 kPa . What is the pressure in millimeters of mercury?

Express the pressure numerically in millimeters of mercury.

Part C

What is the pressure (in atmospheres) of the gas inside the container connected to an open-end, mercury-filled manometer as shown in the picture? (Figure 1) The atmospheric pressure is 0.95 atm.

Express your answer numerically in atmospheres.

Part A- Convert 0.550 atm of pressure to its equivalent in millimeters of mercury.

Part B- The pressure in car tires is often measured in pounds per square inch (lb/in.2), with the recommended pressure being in the range of 25 to 45 lb/in.2. Suppose a tire has a pressure of 38.5 lb/in.2 . Convert 38.5 lb/in.2 to its equivalent in atmospheres.

Part C- High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a method used in chemistry and biochemistry to purify chemical substances. The pressures used in this procedure range from around 500 kilopascals (500,000 Pa) to about 60,000 kPa (60,000,000 Pa). It is often convenient to know the pressure in torr. If an HPLC procedure is running at a pressure of 2.30×107 Pa , what is its running pressure in torr?
