The typical atmospheric pressure on top of Mt. Everest (29,028 ft) is about 265 torr. Convert this pressure to (a) atm; (b) mm; (c) pascals; (d) bars.

10.10
Perform the following conversions:
(a) 2.44 atm to torr;
(b) 682 torr to kPa;
(c) 776 mm Hg to atmospheres;
(d) 1.456 x 10⁵ Pa to atmospheres;
(e) 3.44 atm to bars

A fixed quantity of gas at 23ºC exhibits a pressure of 748 torr and occupies a volume of 10.3 L. (a) Use Boyle's law to calculate the volume the gas will occupy at 23ºC if the pressure is increased to 1.88 atm. (b) Use Charle's law to calculate the volume the gas will occupy if the temperature is increased to 165ºC while the pressure is held constant.
