Convert Torr to Pascals

1 torr is 133.322368 Pa. One torr is exactly 133.322368421 pascals.

One torr is 133.32237 pascals. To convert torr to pascals, multiply by 133.32237; to go the other way, divide by 133.32237 or multiply by 0.0075006168. The factor is exact rather than rounded: it follows from NIST Special Publication 811. Exactly one seven-hundred-and-sixtieth of a standard atmosphere.

How do you convert torr to pascals?

  1. 1.Take the measurement in torr.
  2. 2.Multiply by 133.32237 — that is how many pascals fit in one torr.
  3. 3.To go back the other way, divide by 133.32237, or multiply by 0.0075006168.

Worked example: 25 torr to pascals

Formula
Torr × 133.32237 = Pa
Arithmetic
25 × 133.32237 = 3,333.059211 Pa
Answer
25 Torr = 3,333.059211 Pa

The factor is rounded for display; the figure above is computed from the full value.

What is a torr?

Exactly one seven-hundred-and-sixtieth of a standard atmosphere. Within a millionth of a millimetre of mercury, which is what it replaced, and still the unit of vacuum work.

What is a pascal?

The SI unit: one newton spread over one square metre. It is a small pressure — a sheet of paper resting on a table is about one pascal — which is why the kilopascal is what instruments actually read.

How many pascals are in a torr?

One torr is 133.32237 pascals. Going the other way, one pascal is 0.0075006168 torr. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
