Answer:

540.54 mmHg

Explanation:

We know that the partial pressure of a substance is defined as; Mole fraction * total pressure.

If the total amount of gases in the atmosphere is 100%, the mole fraction of nitrogen gas is now

78/100 = 0.78

Thus, partial pressure of nitrogen gas = 0.78 * 693 = 540.54 mmHg

b. Pressure

Explanation:

Pressure is a physical effect that can change the boiling point of a substance.

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body.

  • A substance will boil when the vapor pressure of its heated molecules is greater than the atmospheric pressure.
  • The higher the atmospheric pressure, the higher the temperature and energy required to boil  a substance.
  • At high altitude, the atmospheric pressure is low and the boiling point of substances is lower.
