Answer:
377 kPa
Explanation:
The absolute pressure of a gas is given by the sum of its gauge pressure and the atmospheric pressure:
[tex]p=p_0 + p_g[/tex]
where
[tex]p_0 = 101 kPa[/tex] is the atmospheric pressure
[tex]p_g[/tex] is the gauge pressure of the gas
In this problem, the gauge pressure of the gas is [tex]p_g = 276 kPa[/tex]. Therefore, the absolute pressure is
[tex]p=101 kPa+276 kPa=377 kPa[/tex]
