A pressure of 25.7 inHg would be how many kilopascals? I received an answer but the person who helped me used mmHg.
How do I convert inHg into mmHg to solve my questions.
Help please
To convert inches of mercury (inHg) to millimeters of mercury (mmHg), you can use the conversion factor that 1 inHg is equal to 25.4 mmHg. Here's how you can solve your question:
1. Start with the given pressure in inHg: 25.7 inHg.
2. Multiply the given pressure by the conversion factor: 25.7 inHg * 25.4 mmHg/inHg.
3. Cancel out the units "inHg" by dividing the numerator by the denominator: (25.7 * 25.4) mmHg.
4. Calculate the result: 651.78 mmHg.
Therefore, a pressure of 25.7 inHg is equivalent to 651.78 mmHg.
If you now want to convert this pressure to kilopascals (kPa), you can use the relationship that 1 mmHg is approximately equal to 0.1333223684 kilopascals. Here's how to do it:
1. Start with the pressure in mmHg: 651.78 mmHg.
2. Multiply the pressure by the conversion factor: 651.78 mmHg * 0.1333223684 kPa/mmHg.
3. Cancel out the units "mmHg" by dividing the numerator by the denominator: (651.78 * 0.1333223684) kPa.
4. Calculate the result: 86.91 kPa.
Hence, a pressure of 25.7 inHg is equivalent to approximately 86.91 kPa.
