One atmosphere of pressure is equal to 760 mmHg. This unit is used in the common barometer and manometer. Determine height (in mm) of a column of liquid bromine if the pressure is one atmosphere. The densities of mercury and bromine are 13.546 and 3.119 g/cm3, respectively.
The density of a mixture of gases may be calculated by summing the products of the density of each gas and the fractional volume of space occupied by that gas. Assume that dry air is 20.96% by volume oxygen, 78.11% nitrogen, and 0.930% argon. Determine the density of argon.
It takes 3.500 in³ of mercury to make one manometer. Find the price of the mercury used to make 19 manometers by first
calculating the cost of mercury for one manometer.
