Pressure is a measure of force per area.

The SI unit of pressure is a Pascal (Pa) which is equivalent to a Newton per meter squared (N/m2).

The product of pressure and volume has the same si base units as?

The product of pressure and volume has the same SI base units as energy or work, which is measured in joules (J). This is due to the definition of pressure (P) as force per unit area (N/m^2) and volume (V) as cubic meters (m^3), where the units of pressure times volume results in joules (J).


What is the SI unit of pressure. What units of pressure are commonly used in the US Why are these common units more convenient to use than the SI unit?

SI unit is the Pascal. The US uses psi (pound per square inch). The last q depends a little on who is asking. It does have the advantage of showing the components. Pascal is equal to a Newton per meter cubed which is not obvious by looking at unit. I suppose its also better for measuring pressures over smaller volumes.


What is value of R In the ideal gas law?

0.0821 L·atm/mol·K -Apex


If the ideal gas constant has a value of 0.0821 what are ts units?

The ideal gas constant has units of liters • atm / (mole • Kelvin), also represented as L • atm / (mol • K) or J / (mol • K) in the International System of Units (SI). It depends on the units you are using for pressure, volume, temperature (atm, liters, Kelvin) and can be converted to different unit systems as needed.


What are the SI units of concentration?

There are no units of concentration. Concentration is written as density, which requires a mass measurement, and a volume measurement. The standard units for this is grams per liter.

When SI units combine what do they make?

When SI units combine, they create derived SI units that are used to express physical quantities. These derived units are formed by multiplying or dividing the base SI units. Examples include the Newton (kg*m/s^2) for force and the Pascal (N/m^2) for pressure.

In the following list of units which are SI units of length mm yd cm mi m g mg lb oz km ml?

The SI units of length from the provided list are millimeters (mm), centimeters (cm), meters (m), and kilometers (km). The other units, such as yards (yd), miles (mi), pounds (lb), ounces (oz), and milliliters (ml), are not SI units of length. The SI system is based on the meter as the fundamental unit of length.


How can if different units are used in measurement problems be overcome by using SI unit?

If you have different units, converting to any common unit will help. Of course, using standard units, i.e. SI units, is better than any other arbitrary unit. Also, SI units for a consistent set of units; as a result, you can often omit proportionality factors from formulae.
