This is a conversion problem. 760 Torr is equal to 1 atmosphere. so we can can solve now. 5,550torr*(1atmosphere/760torr)=7.3atmospheres. since the two torrs cancel out with cross multiplication we are left in atmosphere units.
Answer:
The internal pressure on the bottle of soda is [tex]7.303atm[/tex]
Explanation:
We know that ''torr.'' is actually Torricelli a pressure unit. In order to find this pressure in ''atm'' (which is another pressure unit) we need to know the conversion factor.
The conversion factor is the following :
[tex]1atm=760torr.[/tex]
If we use the conversion factor to find the pressure in atm :
[tex](5550torr.).(\frac{1atm}{760torr.})=7.303atm[/tex]
We found out that [tex]5550torr.[/tex] are equal to [tex]7.303atm[/tex]
You can find the conversion factor on any units table.
