  2. Torr - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torr

    0.019 336 77 psi. The torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, defined as exactly ⁠ 1 760 ⁠ of a standard atmosphere (101325 Pa). Thus one torr is exactly ⁠ 101325 760 ⁠ pascals (≈ 133.32 Pa). Historically, one torr was intended to be the same as one "millimeter of mercury", but subsequent redefinitions of ...

  3. Centimetre or millimetre of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre_or_millimetre...

    Millimetre of water (US spelling millimeter of water) [3] is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 mm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 mmH2O (4 °C) = 999.9720 kg/m3 × 9.80665 m/s2 × 1 mm = 9.8063754138 Pa ≈ 9.80638 Pa ...

  4. Bar (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_(unit)

    The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), though not part of the International System of Units (SI). A pressure of 1 bar is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level (approximately 1.013 bar). [1][2] By the barometric formula, 1 bar is roughly the atmospheric pressure on Earth ...

  5. Inch of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inch_of_water

    Inch of water. Inches of water is a non- SI unit for pressure. It is also given as inches of water gauge (iwg or in.w.g.), inches water column (inch wc, in. WC, " wc, etc. or just wc or WC), inAq, Aq, or inH2O. The units are conventionally used for measurement of certain pressure differentials such as small pressure differences across an ...

  6. International System of Units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units

    The conversion between different SI units for one and the same physical quantity is always through a power of ten. This is why the SI (and metric systems more generally) are called decimal systems of measurement units. [10] The grouping formed by a prefix symbol attached to a unit symbol (e.g. ' km ', ' cm ') constitutes a new inseparable unit ...

  9. Molar concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_concentration

    Molar concentration or molarity is most commonly expressed in units of moles of solute per litre of solution. [1] For use in broader applications, it is defined as amount of substance of solute per unit volume of solution, or per unit volume available to the species, represented by lowercase : [2]
