About the units
- Torr
- Exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, used in vacuum work. It is very close to, but not the same as, one millimeter of mercury.
- Atmosphere
- The standard atmosphere, defined as exactly 101,325 pascals.
Limits and caveats
- Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
- Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.
Questions about this tool
How many atmospheres are in one torr?
1 Torr = 0.00131579 atm exactly.
How do I convert torr to atmospheres?
Use atm = Torr × 0.001315789474. For example, 25 Torr = 0.0328947 atm.
How many torr are in one atmosphere?
1 atm = 760 Torr.
What is the difference between gauge and absolute pressure?
Gauge pressure is measured from the surrounding air pressure, while absolute pressure starts from a perfect vacuum. These converters change the unit only, so a gauge reading stays a gauge reading.
Are torr and mmHg the same?
Almost. One torr is 101325/760 Pa, about 133.322368 Pa, and one conventional mmHg is 133.322387 Pa, a difference of less than one part per million. For everyday use you can treat them as equal.
