    This document discusses examples of problems using a mercury manometer to determine gas pressure in different units. The examples show calculations to find the pressure in torr, Pa, bar, mmHg, atm and kPa given the density of mercury and the height of mercury in the manometer for different gas pressures. Conversions are provided between the different pressure units.

    MANOMETER PROBLEMS

    Examples:
    Consider the following problems with Mercury as manometer fluid (density= 13.6 g/cc).
    1. Determine the pressure of the gas in Torr, Pa, and bar.

    Answers: 264 torr; 35,200 Pa; 0.352 bar

    2. Determine the pressure in mmHg, atm, kPa.

    Answers: 897mmHg; 1.18 atm; 1.20x102 kPa

    3. Determine the pressure in mmHg, atm, kPa


    Answers: 642 mm Hg; 0.845 atm; 85.6 kPa
