The downward pressure on the hg in barometer is ______ the pressure of the atmosphere.
1 answer:
The downward pressure on the hg in barometer is <u>the same as</u> the pressure of the atmosphere.
The atmospheric pressure or barometric pressure is the force exerted by the air in the atmosphere on the earth's surface.
The atmospheric pressure is caused by air molecules colliding with the surface. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 101 kPa and at the cruising altitude of a passenger plane it is 27 kPa.
The atmospheric pressure decrease as the height of a surface above ground level increases.
<h3>What is a barometer?</h3>A barometer is a measuring instrument used to measure the atmospheric pressure or weight of the air, which is useful for making weather predictions.

Answer:
A)
1. Reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.
2. It will turn green.
3. The solution will be cooler..
B) It will turn green.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, for the stated equilibrium:
In such a way, by thinking out the Le Chatelier's principle, we can answer to each question:
A)
1. If potassium bromide, which adds bromide ions, is added more reactant is being added to the solution, therefore, the reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.
2. The formation of the green complex is favored, therefore, it will turn green.
3. The solution will be cooler as heat is converted into "cold" in order to reestablish equilibrium.
B) In this case, as the heat is a reactant, if more heat is added, more products will be formed, which implies that it will turn green.
Regards.
