Question

The air in the container has 80 cm Hg pressure. What is the value of 'h' if the atmospheric pressure is 76 cm Hg ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The SI unit for atmospheric pressure is literally, ‘atmospheres’, with ‘atm’ written as shorthand

The conversion for atmospheres to related units are as follow:

1 atm = 101 325 Pascals (Pa, or Newtons per metre square, N m^-2)

1 atm = 76 cm Hg

1 atm = 14.6959 PSI (pound force per square inch)

So to answer your question, 76 cm Hg is equal to 1 atmospheres , or 1 atm.

Hope it helped!! :))
