To determine the pressure in units of torr that is equal to 1.14 atm of pressure, we use the conversion factor between atmospheres (atm) and torr.
1. Understand the relationship between atm and torr:
- 1 atmosphere (atm) is equivalent to 760 torr.
2. Set up the conversion:
Since 1 atm = 760 torr, we can calculate the pressure in torr by multiplying the given pressure in atm by the conversion factor 760.
3. Perform the multiplication:
- Multiply the given pressure in atm (1.14) by the conversion factor (760).
4. Calculate the result:
- [tex]\( 1.14 \times 760 = 866.4 \)[/tex]
Therefore, 1.14 atm of pressure is equivalent to 866.4 torr.
Among the given options:
- 1.16 torr
- 866 torr
- 116 torr
- 0.00150 torr
The closest and correct option to our calculated result is:
- 866 torr
