List four common units for measuring pressure.

A local weather station reports the barometric pressure as 29.5 inHg (inches of Hg). Convert this pressure to torr and to atm.

Obtain phase diagrams for water and carbon dioxide. Would it be possible to skate on 'dry ice,' that is, solid CO₂?

A tank contains oxygen (O₂) at a pressure of 2.00 atm. What is the pressure in the tank in terms of the following units? b. lb/in.²

On a climb up Mount Whitney, the atmospheric pressure dropsto 467 mmHg. What is the pressure in terms of the following units? b. torr

Obtain phase diagrams for water and carbon dioxide. Based on the phase diagram for water, explain how it is possible to skate on ice, that is, solid water.

Use the molar volume to calculate each of the following at STP: a. the number of moles of CO₂ in 4.00 L of CO₂ gas
