What is the pressure of 0.520 ATM equal to in mm HG?

395.2 mmHGSimply put.1 ATM = 760 mmHG (Torr)0.520 * 760 = 395.2 mmHG


At sea level what is the normal partial pressure of oxygen in the systemic veins?

What is a pressure of 8.00 ATM equal to in mm Hg?

1 atm = 760 mmHg its a proportion soo... 1atm -> 8.00 atm (multiplied it by 8) 760Hg -> ? (multiply by 8 like above) 6080 mmHg


What pressure is argon at room temperature?

The given information is not sufficient to answer this question. You can use the Ideal Gas Law to find out though, expressed mathematically as: PV=nRT Where: P=Pressure (in mmHg) V=Volume (in Liters) n=number of moles of gas R=62.36367 L·mmHg·K−1·mol−1 (Ignore the jargon at the end just know that solving the equation for P will give an answer in the unit mmHg,) T= Temperature (in Kelvin) (room temperature in Kelivin is 293 K) You would already need to know V and n to begin with in order to be able to do this equation, however for the sake of example (exactly) one liter and .0094 mole of Argon would be: P(1)=(.0094)(62.36367)(293) P= 170 mmHg One mole or 39.948 grams of Argon would be at a pressure of P(1)=(1)(62.36367)(293) P= 18300 mmHg which is 24 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere.


What is the relationship between the units atmosphere and mmHg?

they are both describing air pressure. One standard atmosphere is about equal to 760 mmHg. The origin of mmHg was from measuring the atmospheric pressure using mercury, a heavy liquid metal. You can replace mercury with any non-volatile liquid, such as water. But you will need a lot more water to get the same answer; the density of mercury to that of water is 13.5 : 1, so 0.76 mHg will have to be replaced by 10.3 mH2O. You need a column of water of about 10.3 m high for measurement --how inconvenient.

The pressure acting on 50 cubic meters of gas is raised from 200 kPa to 400 kPa The temperature remains constant What is the new volume?

800mm Hg Pressure and Volume are inversely proportional... thus is volume is halved (400ml -> 200ml) then pressure would double (400 mmHg -> 800 mmHg)

What does Sys mmhg and DIA mmhg mean on the blood pressure reading?

The Systolic number is the force of the blood on the artery walls as the heart contracts. The Diastolic is the pressure when the heart is resting in between beats. The mmhg is how the pressure is measured, which is in millimeters of mercury.
