Unit Information

Atmosphere (atm)

Definition

The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as being precisely equal to 101,325 Pa. It was originally defined as the pressure exerted by 760 mm of mercury at 0 °C and standard gravity.

Current Use

The atmosphere is used in chemistry, physics, and meteorology as a reference point for standard conditions of pressure.

Millimeter mercury (0°C) (mmHg)

Definition

The millimeter of mercury (symbol: mmHg) is a manometric unit of pressure, formerly defined as the extra pressure generated by a column of mercury one millimeter high at 0°C. Today it is defined as exactly 1/760 of an atmosphere.

Current Use

mmHg is widely used in medicine for measuring blood pressure and in various fields involving vacuum measurements and weather reports.
