Question

In thermodynamics the standard pressure is 100.0 kPa. What is this value in units of atmosphere

Answer 1

100.0 kPa equals 0.9872 atm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that 1 atm equals 101.3 kPa, so if we state a rule of three, the conversion from kPa to atm for 100.0 kPa will look like this:

`100.0\text{ kPa}\cdot\frac{1\text{ }atm}{101.3\text{ kPa}}=0.9872\text{ atm.}`

The answer would be that 100.0 kPa equals 0.9872 atm.
