What pressure air on left need to be pumped to bring water


A partitioned tank contains water and mercury. What is the gauge pressure in the air trapped in the left chamber? What pressure would the air on the left need to be pumped to in order to bring the water and mercury free surfaces level? (The right tank is open to the atmosphere.) Assume mercury has a specific gravity of 13.55 and water has a density of 999 kg/m3.
