question

The barometric formula relates the pressure of a gas of molar mass MM at an altitude hh to its pressure p0p_0 at sea level. Derive this relation by showing that the change in pressure dp\mathrm{d} p for an infinitesimal change in altitude dh\mathrm{d} h where the density is ρ\rho is $\mathrm{d} p=-\rho g \mathrm{~d} h$. Remember that ρ\rho depends on the pressure. Evaluate the pressure difference between the top and bottom of a laboratory vessel of height 15 cm.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
The barometric formula relates the pressure of a gas of molar mass M at an altitude h to its pressure p₀ at sea level. Derive this relation by showing that the change in pressure dp for an infinitesimal change in altitude dh where the density is ρ is $\mathrm{d} p=-\rho g \mathrm{~d} h$. Remember that ρ depends on the pressure. Evaluate the pressure difference between the top and bottom of a laboratory vessel of height 15 cm.
Original LaTeX notation
The barometric formula relates the pressure of a gas of molar mass $M$ at an altitude $h$ to its pressure $p_0$ at sea level. Derive this relation by showing that the change in pressure $\mathrm{d} p$ for an infinitesimal change in altitude $\mathrm{d} h$ where the density is $\rho$ is $\mathrm{d} p=-\rho g \mathrm{~d} h$. Remember that $\rho$ depends on the pressure. Evaluate the pressure difference between the top and bottom of a laboratory vessel of height 15 cm.
