A glove box is an enclosure held at a lower pressure than its surroundings to ensure that any fluid that escapes its container within the glove does not escape into its surroundings. The pressure inside a sealed container sitting in the laboratory is 7.3 psig when the pressure in the laboratory is 14.8 psia. a) What is the absolute pressure inside the container? b) What is the gage pressure inside the container when it is inside a glove box maintained at a pressure of 13.5 psia? PABS = PGAGE= psia psig
