A sample of pure oxygen gas has a pressure of 795 torr. What is the pressure of the oxygen in units of atmospheres
A) 0.795 atm
B) 1.05 atm
C) 0.604 atm
D) 0.760 atm
E) 1.01 atm

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pressure in atmospheres can be calculated by dividing the pressure in torr by the conversion factor 760 torr/atm. Thus, 795 torr / 760 torr/atm = 1.046 atm, which rounds to 1.05 atm, making option B correct.
