The atmospheric pressure in Mexico City (elevation 2240m) is 0.770atm. Calculate the atmospheric pressure in mmHg and torr. Round each of your answers to 3 significant digits.

To convert the atmospheric pressure from atm to mmHg and torr, we need to know the conversion factors.

1 atm is equivalent to 760 mmHg or 760 torr.

So, to convert the atmospheric pressure in Mexico City from atm to mmHg, we multiply the given pressure by the conversion factor:

0.770 atm * 760 mmHg/1 atm = 584.2 mmHg

Rounding to three significant figures gives 584 mmHg.

Similarly, to convert the atmospheric pressure to torr, we use the same conversion factor:

0.770 atm * 760 torr/1 atm = 584.2 torr

Rounding to three significant figures gives 584 torr.

So, the atmospheric pressure in Mexico City is 584 mmHg or 584 torr.
