Liquid pressure and atmospheric pressure

A constant volume hydrogen thermometer was used to measure the temperature of a hot bath. The excess pressure in the bulb over the atmospheric pressure is found to be equal to 114cm of Hg. At 0^(@)C the pressure in the bulb is equal to that of the atmosphere. Find the temperature the hot bath. [ Hint ( P)/( T) = ( P_(0))/( T_(0)) ]

Asertiion : Inspirations occurs when there is a negative pressure in the lungs with respect to the atmospheric pressure. Reason : During inspiration, a decrease in pulmonary volume increases the intre-pulmonary pressure than atmospheric pressure which forces the air from outside to moe into the lungs.
