Determine the column height in meters if mercury is used


Mercury is often used in barometers. This is because tje vapor pressure of mercury is low enough to be ignored, and because it is so dense (specific gravity= 13.6) the tube can be shortened considerably. With the atmospheric pressure of 99.9 kN/m^2 at 30 degrees Celsius. Determine the column height in meters (and feet) if mercury is used. Please try to explain your responses so I can understand
