Discover the ease of converting Torr to Pascals with our Torr to Picopascal Converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool promises accuracy and simplicity, sparking your curiosity to explore more.
A Torr is a unit of pressure named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli. It's equivalent to 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a one-millimeter column of mercury at zero degrees Celsius. One Torr is also equivalent to 133.322368 pascals precisely. It is a non-SI unit but is accepted for use with the International System of Units.
Definition of PicopascalA picopascal is a submultiple of the pascal, which is the SI unit for pressure. It represents a very small amount of pressure, where one picopascal (pPa) equals 10^-12 pascals. The pascal unit is defined as one newton of force applied over an area of one square meter. The picopascal is commonly used in science and engineering for very low-pressure measurements.
