The difference in the heights of mercury columns in a closed end manometer connected to a gas container is found to be 15 cm. What is the pressure of the gas in terms of Pa ?

Explanation

To find the pressure of the gas in terms of Pascals, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the relationship between height of mercury and pressure
In a closed-end manometer, the pressure of the gas is equal to the pressure exerted by the height of the mercury column. The height difference (h) is given as 15 cm.

### Step 2: Convert the height from cm to meters
Since pressure is often expressed in Pascals (Pa), we need to convert the height from centimeters to meters:
