Convert Torr to Pascal
Convert Torr to Pascal by multiplying by 133.322—standard for vacuum and lab work.
How to Convert Torr to Pascal
To convert Torr to Pascal, multiply Torr by 133.322.
Conversion Formula:
value * 133.322Understanding the Conversion
Torr to Pascal converts vacuum-scale readings to the SI base unit. Multiply Torr by 133.322. For example, 760 Torr ≈ 101,325 Pa (atmosphere). Use this when equations or systems require Pa but your instruments read Torr.
Conversion Examples
Example: Convert 760 Torr to Pa
- Step 1: 760 × 133.322 ≈ 101,325.
- Step 2: Result ≈ 101,325 Pa.
- Step 3: Atmospheric reference.
760 Torr ≈ 101,325 Pa
Sea-level pressure.
Example: Convert 10 Torr to Pa
- Step 1: 10 × 133.322 = 1,333.22.
- Step 2: Result = 1,333.22 Pa.
- Step 3: Rough vacuum example.
10 Torr = 1,333.22 Pa
Rough vacuum level.
Example: Convert 0.1 Torr to Pa
- Step 1: 0.1 × 133.322 = 13.3322.
- Step 2: Result ≈ 13.33 Pa.
- Step 3: High-vacuum illustration.
0.1 Torr ≈ 13.33 Pa
High vacuum range.
Conversion Formula
Torr is defined as 1/760 atm; with 1 atm = 101,325 Pa, each Torr is 133.322 Pa.
