7. Gases

What is the pressure (in atmospheres) of the gas inside the container connected to an open-end, mercury-filled manometer as shown in the picture? (figure 1) the atmospheric pressure is 0.95 atm.

If you measure pressure in bars instead of atmospheres, calculate the corresponding value of r in l−bar/mol−k.
