Convert 0.5 atmospheres pressure into mm of mercury.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1 atm = 760 mm of Hg
`:. 0.5` atm pressure = `(760 mm xx 0.5 atm)/(1 atm)`
`= 380.0 mm of Hg. `

    A manometer reads the pressure of a gas in an exclosure as shown in fig.10.25(a) When a pump removes some of the gas, the manometer reads as in fig.10.25(b) the liquid used in the manometer is mercury and the atmospheric pressure is 76cm of mercury. Give the absolute and gauge pressure of the gas in the exclosure for cases (a) and (b) in units of cm of mercury. How would the levels change in case (b) If 13.6 cm of water (immiscible with mercury) are poured into the right limb of the manometer? (ignore the small change in the volume of the gas).

    An ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed lower end of a narrow vertical tube of uniform bore. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. (Atmospheric pressure is 76 cm of mercury). The length of the mercury and the trapped gas columns are 20 cm and 43 cm, respectively. What will be the length of the gas column when the tube is tilted slowly in a vertical plane through an angle of 60^(@) . Assume the temperature to be constant.
