Torr to Atmospheres: 1 Torr equals 0.001316 atm. To convert torr to atmospheres, multiply by 0.001316 (atm = Torr × 0.00131579). For example, 10 Torr = 0.013158 atm.
How to Convert Torr to Atmospheres
To convert from torr to atmospheres, multiply the value by 0.001316. The conversion is linear, meaning doubling the input doubles the output.
Conversion Formula
- Torr to Atmospheres:
atm = Torr × 0.00131579 - Atmospheres to Torr:
Torr = atm ÷ 0.00131579

Understanding the Units
What is a Torr?
One torr equals exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, or about 133.322 pascals — close to one millimeter of mercury.
Named after Evangelista Torricelli (1608–1647), inventor of the barometer.
Common contexts: vacuum technology, medical blood pressure.
What is an Atmosphere?
A standard atmosphere equals exactly 101,325 pascals — defined as the average atmospheric pressure at sea level.
Common contexts: chemistry, reference conditions.
