Answer: 1.48 atmosphere

Step-by-step explanation:

Pressure in kilopascal = 150

Pressure in atmosphere = ?

Recall that 1 atmosphere = 101.325 kilopascal

Hence, 1 atm = 101.325 kPa

Z atm = 150 kPa

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

150 kPa x 1 atm = 101.325 kPa x Z

150 kPa•atm = 101.325 kPa•Z

Divide both sides by 101.325 kPa

150 kPa•atm/101.325 kPa = 101.325 kPa•Z/101.325 kPa

1.48 atm = Z

Thus, 150 kPa is equivalent to 1.48 atmospheres
