Describe the Ideal Gas Law?
The mercury level in the left arm of the J-shaped tube is attached to a thermostat gas-containing bulb. The left arm is 10.83 cm and the right arm is 34.71 cm above the bottom of the manometer. If the barometric pressure reads 738.4 Torr, what is the pressure of the gas? Assume that temperature-induced changes in the reading of the barometer and J tube are small enough to neglect.
