The pressure (in atmospheres) of the gas inside the container connected to an open-end, mercury-filled manometer is 1.19 atm
How do I determine the pressure of the gas?
The pressure of a gas inside a container connected to an open-end manometer is given as:
Pressure of gas = Atmospheric presure + pressure due to height
Now, we shall determine the pressure of the gas as illustrated below:
- Atmospheric pressure = 0.95 atm
- Pressure due to height = 18 cmHg = 180 mmHg = 180 / 760 = 0.24 atm
- Presure of gas =?
Pressure of gas = Atmospheric presure + pressure due to height
Pressure of gas = 0.95 + 0.24
Pressure of gas = 1.19 atm
Thus, the pressure of the gas is 1.19 atm
