Answer :
The pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in mmHg is 0.239mmHg.
The pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in atm is [tex]3.14\times 10^{-4}atm[/tex].
Explanation :
The conversion used for pressure from torr to mmHg is:
1 torr = 1 mmHg
The conversion used pressure from torr to atm is:
1 atm = 760 torr
or,
[tex]1torr=\frac{1}{760}atm[/tex]
As we are given the pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere 0.239 torr. Now we have to determine the pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in mmHg and atm.
Pressure in mmHg :
As, [tex]1torr=1mmHg[/tex]
So, [tex]0.239torr=\frac{0.239torr}{1torr}\times 1mmHg=0.239mmHg[/tex]
Thus, the pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in mmHg is 0.239mmHg.
Pressure in atm:
As, [tex]1torr=\frac{1}{760}atm[/tex]
So, [tex]0.239torr=\frac{0.239torr}{1torr}\times \frac{1}{760}atm=3.14\times 10^{-4}atm[/tex]
Thus, the pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in atm is [tex]3.14\times 10^{-4}atm[/tex].
