A barometer has liquid of density 1 kg/m^3 of level 5 cm below the outside level, what is the pressure of the gas captured inside?(a) 0.5 atm + 1 Pa(b) 1 atm + 0.5 Pa(c) 1.5 atm + 1 Pa(d) 2 atm + 0.5 PaThe question was asked by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.My question is based upon Differential Pressure Measurements topic in section Temperature and Pressure of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer» CORRECT choice is (b) 1 atm + 0.5 PA

To explain: PRESSURE of GAS = Pressure of liquid + atmospheric pressure = 1*10*0.05 Pa + 1 atm = 0.5 Pa + 1 atm.
