This problem is providing the length in inches of a rod and it is being required to convert it to centimeters. According to the following, the answer will be 43.7 cm:

<h3>Units conversion:</h3><h3 />

In science, we use units conversion to represent measurements in different types of units depending on a specific requirement. To do so, we use conversion factors based on equivalence statements, relating the required unit with the given one.

In this case, the equivalence statement between inches and centimeters is 2.54 cm = 1 in and we can use it to get the answer as shown below:

17.2in*\frac{2.54cm}{1in} \\\\=43.7 cm

A 7.5 L cylinder contains 5 moles of gas at a temperature of 274°C. What is its pressure in kiloPascals (kPa)?
AleksAgata [21]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

 = 3032.15 kPa

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Using the equation;

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure,. V is the volume, n is the number of moles and T is the temperature and R is the gas constant, 0.08206 L. atm. mol−1.

Volume = 7.5 L, T = 274 +273 = 547 K, N = 5 moles

Therefore;

Pressure = nRT/V

               = (5 × 0.08206 × 547)/7.5 L

               = 29.925 atm

But; 1 atm = 101325 pascals

Hence; Pressure = 3032150.63 pascals

                            <u>= 3032.15 kPa</u>
