Answer

The pressure in the tank is equal to: (a) 1520 Torr (b) 1520 mmHg

Work Step by Step

1. Find the conversion factors: $1 \space atm = 760 \space Torr \space (exact)$ $1 \space atm = 760 \space mmHg \space (exact)$ 2. Convert the pressure. (a) $$2.00 \space atm \times \frac{760 \space Torr}{1 \space atm} = 1520 \space Torr$$ (b) $$2.00 \space atm \times \frac{760 \space mmHg}{1 \space atm} = 1520 \space mmHg$$
