Abbreviations

  • atm - atmosphere
  • mm Hg - millimeters of mercury
  • torr = mm Hg
  • Pa - Pascal (kPa = kilo Pascal
  • oC  - degrees Celsius
  • oK  - degrees Kelvin

Conversions

  • oK = oC + 273
  • 1 cm3 = 1 mL (milliliter)
  • 1dm3(cubic decimeter) = 1 L = 1000 mL
  • 0.00 oC = 273 oK
  • 1.00 atm = 760.0 mm Hg = 1.01.325 kPa

Standard conditions

  • 0.00oC = 273oK
  • 1 atm = 760.0 mmHg = 101.325 kPa = 101,325 Pa
