What are Torr and Dekapascal

Definition of Torr

A Torr is a unit of pressure named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It's defined as 1/760 of standard atmospheric pressure. Therefore, one Torr approximates the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of mercury at zero degrees Celsius at sea level. It's a non-SI unit that is accepted for use with the International System of Units.

Definition of Dekapascal

Dekapascal is a unit of pressure where 'deka' signifies ten in the metric system. Hence, one dekapascal equals ten pascals, the SI derived unit for pressure. It's used to measure small pressure changes that are significant but not extreme, providing a convenient scale for various scientific and engineering applications.
