High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a method used in chemistry and biochemistry to
purify chemical substances. The pressures used in this procedure range from around 500
kilopascals (500,000 Pa) to about 60,000 kPa (60,000,000 Pa). It is often convenient to know
the pressure in torr. If an HPLC procedure is running at a pressure of 3.20x10^8 Pa , what is its
running pressure in torr?
Express the pressure numerically in torr.

Answer:

2,400,000 torr (3 s.f.)

Explanation:

Convert the pressure from Pascal to atm first:

[tex]\boxed{1 \: atm = 101325 \:Pa }[/tex]

3.20 ×10⁸ Pa

= [(3.20 ×10⁸) ÷101325] atm

= 3158.2 atm (5 s.f.)

Convert atm to torr:

[tex]\boxed{1 \: atm = 760 \: torr}[/tex]

3158.2 atm

= (3158.2 ×760) torr

= 2400000 torr (3 s.f.)
