Question
Chapter 10, Problem 4KT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The key term that corresponds to the definition “an instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure” is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Pressure of any gas is exerted by striking molecules of the gas inside surface of the container. The intensity of pressure depends on how hard the molecules strike the container. In the vacuum, there is no gas and pressure is zero. The pressure exerted by the gas molecule in the air is known as atmospheric pressure.
