Height of Water in a Barometer Given Density & Column Height of Mercury - Chemistry Problems

This chemistry video tutorial explains how to calculate the height of water in a barometer given the density and column height of a mercury barometer. This tutorial explains how to derive the formula to calculate the column height of water using other equations in physics and geometry. The weight of the atmosphere must equal the weight of the fluid in the column for equilibrium to be established. Knowing this, you can derive the formula using density and the volume of a cylindrical prism.

Professor Organic Chemistry Tutor, thank you for using practice problems/examples to explain How to Calculate the Height of Water in a Barometer given the Density and column height of a Mercury Barometer. A solid background in Mathematics and Physics is also needed when deriving equations in Chemistry. This is an error free video/lecture on TH-cam TV with the Organic Chemistry Tutor.

What happens when the tube is made wider is there any kind of effect on barometer reading

[@darwinci]

no it doesn't

So you're saying, size matters? Cool video.

[@elizabethquaranta4402]

Can you do a video on The sea level (as reported by satellite data) has been changing.
Can you construct a formula for it? Is this variation direct or indirect? Why? and explain it?

[@anilkumarsharma8901]

A very big barometer gives enough energy which runs a city or not???

[@diablo00o46]

dirty minded dont watch this video ...

[@chrisplendour6761]

The video is so helpful, thank you 😊.

[@kennbanda5337]

Hats off for Mr in this video!

[@sakshisinha3422]

thank you

[@subramanyamrevanuru6032]

Great Video

[@darwinci]

what if barometer is above sea level?

[@ravipandey3379]

Column height decreases as atm pressure decreases with height

From where you are

thanks lads
