Question 12 • FL-2003350-Chemistry 1 Honors

If the atmospheric pressure on the top of a mountain is 0.2396 atm, what is the pressure in kilopascal (kPa)?

Answer
A
2.365 ´ 10–3 kPa
B
24.28 kPa
C
182.1 kPa
D
422.9 kPa

Explanation

Use the conversion 1 atm = 101.325 kPa. Multiply 0.2396 atm by 101.325 kPa/atm to get about 24.27 kPa, which rounds to 24.28 kPa. Therefore, the correct choice is B, 24.28 kPa.
