Homework Statement


If the atmospheric pressure is 745 mm Hg, what is the gas pressure in the apparatus in atm?
(Hint: the gas pressure is not equal to atmospheric pressure. Which is greater Pgas or Patm?)
Be careful with your units, 10.2 cm is equal to 102 mm



Homework Equations


P=H+G


The Attempt at a Solution


P=102+0.98
P=102.98

We don't know the apparatus, we don't know what you add to what, we don't know the units. There is no way we can help or comment on the problem itself.
