What are Dekapascal and Torr

A Dekapascal, symbolized as daPa, is a metric unit of pressure. It is equivalent to ten pascals, the standard unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI). One Dekapascal represents the pressure exerted by a force of ten newtons acting over an area of one square meter.

A Torr is a non-SI unit of pressure, defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a millimeter of mercury (mmHg). Traditionally used in vacuum measurements, a Torr is equivalent to about 133.322 pascals in the SI system.
