The gauge on an H cylinder of O₂ reads 2000 psig. About how long would the contents of this cylinder last, until completely empty, at a flow of 6 L/min?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An H cylinder of oxygen typically contains about 6600 liters of gas. At a flow rate of 6 liters per minute, you can calculate the duration by dividing the total volume by the flow rate: 6600 liters / 6 liters per minute = 1100 minutes. Converting 1100 minutes into hours gives you 18 hours and 20 minutes, but since this option is not available, the closest correct option is 17 hours and 30 minutes.
