Answers are:
2. It pushes on all objects that are on Earth’s surface.
3. It can be measured in atmospheres or kilopascals.
Barometric pressure (atmospheric pressure), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth
Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing height, because there are fewer air molecules above a given object.
Barometer is an instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure.
Atmospheric pressure (atm) is the force per unit area by the weight of air above that point.
Kilopascal (kPa) is a metric system pressure unit and equals to 1000 force of newton per square meter.
Atmospheric pressure results from molecular collisions of atmospheric gases.
<span>Answer:
From the ideal gas law, MM=mRTPV; where MM = molecular mass; m = mass; P = pressure in atmospheres; V= volume in litres; R = gas constant with appropriate units.
So, 0.800â‹…gĂ—0.0821â‹…Lâ‹…atmâ‹…Kâ’1â‹…molâ’1Ă—373â‹…K0.256â‹…LĂ—0.987â‹…atm = 97.0 gâ‹…molâ’1.
nĂ—(12.01+1.01+2Ă—35.45)â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1 = 97.0â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1.
Clearly, n = 1. And molecular formula = C2H2Cl2.
I seem to recall (but can't be bothered to look up) that vinylidene chloride, H2C=C(Cl)2 is a low boiling point gas, whereas the 1,2 dichloro species is a volatile liquid. At any rate we have supplied the molecular formula as required.</span>
