Answer:81mmHg
Explanation:
Since the total pressure is 2700mmHg and we are told that nitrogen occupies 3% of that pressure in the Venus atmosphere. We have to find the pressure of nitrogen using its percentage.
It should be noted that the total pressure of the atmosphere is the sum total of the partial pressures of all the respective gases in the atmosphere.
Hence partial pressure of nitrogen= 3.0%× 2700mmHg= 3.0/100× 2700
Partial pressure of nitrogen= 81mmHg
