The pH of pure water is 7.0, which is neutral.
For a pH below this, the water is acidic. Substances that are acidic are often corrosive and thus could cause weather damaging. The pH of the precipitation in NY is below that of the precipitation in IL, and NY receives more precipitation, so for both of those reasons, it is likely to have more chemical weathering.
The pressure of the confined gas will be 769-17 = 752 mmHg
<h3>What is Manometer ?</h3>
Manometer is a U shaped instrument which is used to measure the pressure acting on a column of fluid , a difference in the pressure in the two arms of the manometer causes the liquid to reach different heights.
The difference in the heights of the Hg columns in Diagram B is17 mm-Hg.
the atmospheric pressure is 769 mm-Hg,
the pressure of the confined gas in mm-Hg = ?
The pressure of the confined gas will be 769-17 = 752 mmHg
