Unit of static pressure of fan?

Usually, due to the relatively low value of the static pressure of a fan, the unit that this pressure is expressed is milibar, mm H2O, psi, mm Hg, kPa, hPa. In the US, inches H2O.


Why h2O Is liquid and H2O is gas?

Change in the state of matter. It is the same thing but, one is under less pressure or higher temperature (or both) than the other.


If the column of water in the water barometer rose to a height of 39 feet what would the atmospheric pressure be in mm Hg?

Given: 39ft. H2O Conversions you can look up or know: 1ft=12in 1in=25.4mm 1mmHg=13.6mm H2O 39ft H2O (12in H2O/1ft H2O)(25.4mm H2O/1in H2O)(1mm Hg/13.6mm Hg)= 874.0588235 in calculator, but 874 with sig figs.


Is argon a solid?

I think its a gasIt is a gas at room temperature, however, at lower temperature or higher pressure it can be a liquid or even a solid. Think about H2O is it a liquid? It depends on temperature and pressure. water, ice and steam are all H2O, but at different tempertures.


Is it ever possible for solid H2O to exist at a temperature above 25 Celsius?

No, at standard pressure.


Does baking soda raise your PH in your body?

Baking soda does raise your blood pressure. Since Baking soda raises blood pressure and if your blood pressure is high then there will be a higher diffusion of Nutrients, O2, Proteins at the arterial end of the capillary into the Interstitial Fluid due to a higher pressure gradient and thus at the venous end of the capillary a low concentration of CO2 (produced by the cells) will diffuse from the interstitial fluid into the venous end of the capillary. So overall the dissolved CO2 in the blood will be low. So how does CO2 relate to pH? we know that CO2 combines with H2O to form Carbonic Acid; Carbonic Acid in turn disassociates to form H+ and HCO3- CO2 + H20 --> H2CO3 --> H+ + HCO3- Since the CO2 level in the blood is low there will be Less H+ in the blood and therefore the pH of the blood will be high, Causing Alkalosis.


What is the difference between beaker and graduated cylinder in terms of measuring a volume of liquid?

beaker holds the H2o been measured by the graduated cylinder


What form water will be at four degree centigrade?

At standard atmospheric pressure, Water (H2O) will be in the liquid state.


What is low vapor pressure?

Vapor pressure refers to the force exerted by gaseous molecules of a liquid. Usually this is measured in a closed system. For example, in a water bottle some H2O molecules are able to move from liquid to gas phase at room temperature. The molecules that do this create vapor pressure. Low vapor pressure is usually observed in substances that have a low boiling point or if it is being held at a low temperature.


What is the osmotic pressure of NaCl in H2O?
