Answer :
Answer
1. 1.7 atm = 1292 mm Hg
2. 9.1 psi = 470.6 mm Hg
3. 740 torr = 740 mm Hg
Explanation
Conversion factor:
1 atm = 760 mm Hg
1 psi = 51.7149 mm Hg
1 torr = 1 mm Hg
Hence,
1. 1.7 atm
1 atm = 760 mm Hg
1.7 atm = x mm Hg
X = (1.7 atm/1 atm) x 760 mm Hg = 1292 mm Hg
1.7 atm = 1292 mm Hg
9.1 psi
1 psi = 51.7149 mm Hg
9.1 psi = x mm Hg
x = (9.1 psi/1 psi) x 51.7149 mm Hg = 470.6 mm Hg
9.1 psi = 470.6 mm Hg
3. 740 torr
1 torr = 1 mm Hg
740 torr = x mm Hg
x = (740 torr/1 torr) x 1 mm Hg = 740 mm Hg
740 torr = 740 mm Hg
