A gas is filled into a bulb connected to an open limb manometer. The level of mercury in the open arm is 2.1 cm lower than that in the other arm of the manometer. The atmospheric pressure is 740 mm. What is the pressure of the gas?

A manometer is connected to a gas containing bulb. The open arm reads 43.7 cm whereas the arm connected to the bulb reads 15.6 cm . If the barometric pressure is 743 mm mercury , calculate the pressure of the gas in bar? Strategy : The pressure of the gas inside the bulb is greater than the external atmospheric pressure because the height of mercury column in the left arm is less than in the right arm.Therefore , p_("gas") ("in cm") = p_("atom") ("in cm") + h cm
