147) An open-end manometer constructed from a U-shaped tube was operated using an oil that has a density of 1.088 g mL−1. In a particular measurement, the level in the end connected to the gas vessel, on which the experiment was being conducted, measured 76.2 cm above the U-neck, while the level in the open end was 23.8 cm above the U-neck. The outside air pressure in the laboratory was measured as 754 torr. What is the pressure in the gas vessel?

Hint: The density of mercury is 13.533 g mL−1 at room temperature.

153) A general chemistry student needs to heat a liquid. Not wanting to spill anything, he puts a stopper on the solution flask and then heats the solution to 220 °C. While working in another part of the lab, the student hears an explosion and rushes over to find his flask broken into dozens of pieces. What was the likely cause of the explosion?

Because of this, it has fairly strong interactions with itself in the gas phase that can make it behave less like an ideal gas that other gases under similar conditions.
