-What is the pressure (in mm Hg)of the gas inside the above apparatus if the outside pressure,P_atm,is 750 mm Hg and the difference in mercury levels,Δh,is 50 mm Hg? A)50 mm Hg B)700 mm Hg C)750 mm Hg D)800 mm Hg

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pressure inside the apparatus is equal to the atmospheric pressure plus the pressure due to the difference in mercury levels. Therefore, the pressure inside the apparatus is 750 mm Hg + 50 mm Hg = 800 mm Hg.
