1 atm = 760 mm = 760 torr = 14.7 lbs/in^2
For example:
To change 550 mm to atm it is
550 mm x (1 atm/760 mm) = ? atm.
Note that the "fraction" (the conversion factor) is placed so that the unit you don't want to keep(mm) is canceled and the unit you want to convert to(atm) is kept.
The pressure of gas is measured at 550 mm Hg. How do you calculate this to Torr, lb/in2, atm, and in Hg? Please show conversions so that I can understand?
Thank you!
