Answer: 24.28 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the earth's atmosphere at any given point. Pressure is force acting per unit area. It is measured in atmosphere or pascal.


Pressure=(force)/(area)


1 atm=101.325kPa


0.2396 atm=(101.325kPa)/(1)* {0.2396}=24.28kPa
