The answer to your question is true.
Answer:
Explanation:
A pressure that causes the Hg column to rise 1 millimeter is called a torr. The term 1 mmHg used can replaced by the torr.
1 atm = 760 torr = 14.7 psi.
A.
120 mmHg
Psi:
760 mmHg = 14.7 psi
120 mmHg = 14.7/760 * 120
= 2.32 psi
Pa:
1mmHg = 133.322 Pa
120 mmHg = 120 * 133.322
= 15998.4 Pa
B.
80 mmHg
Psi:
760 mmHg = 14.7 psi
80 mmHg = 14.7/760 * 80
= 1.55 psi
Pa:
1mmHg = 133.322 Pa
80 mmHg = 80 * 133.322
= 10665.6 Pa
In the given question, one important information for getting to the actual solution is not given and that is the atmospheric pressure. To find the approximate absolute pressure, it is needed to add the value of atmospheric pressure with the gage pressure.
Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa
Then
Absolute pressure = 156 + 100 kPa
= 256 KPa.
