Chapter 5: Problem 13

Convert \(562 \mathrm{mmHg}\) to atm.

Short Answer

Expert verified
Once the conversion is complete, the result is approximately 0.74 atm.

Step by step solution

01

Identify the conversion factor

The conversion factor between mmHg and atm is that 1 atm = 760 mmHg. We will use this conversion factor to convert 562 mmHg into atm.
02

Set up the conversion

Now, set up the conversion. To do this, you divide the given quantity in mmHg (562 mmHg) by the equivalent value in mmHg (760 mmHg).
03

Execute the conversion

Next, perform the division. When you divide 562 by 760, you get approximately 0.74.
