The atmospheric pressure on the surface of Venus is 6.84X10^4. Calculate the atmospheric pressure in atm and torr. Round each of
1 answer:
Answer:
0.675 atm
513 Torr
Explanation:
Given is that, the atmospheric pressure on the surface of Venus is
6.84 X 10⁴ Pa.
1 atm (atmospheric pressure) is equal to 101325 pascal (Pa).
To convert divide the pressure value by 101325.
Pressure in atm =
= 0.675055 atm
Rounding it off to 3 significant digits: 0.675 atm
Now, one Torr is 133.322 Pa. For conversion, divide the pressure value by 133.322.
Pressure in Torr =
=513.04219 Torr
Rounding it off to 3 significant digits: 513 Torr

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors which are present on the surface of a liquid.
For example, vapor pressure of water at room temperature is 0.0313 atm.
On the other hand, the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals atmospheric pressure is known as boiling point.
For example, boiling point of water at room temperature is .
Thus, we can conclude that vapor pressure can be described as the pressure exerted by a gas above the surface of its liquid.
