How to Convert Pascal to Standard Atmosphere

1 pascal = 9.86923 × 10-6 standard atmospheres exact

Standard Atmosphere = Pascal × 9.86923 × 10-6

Example: 16 Pa × 9.86923 × 10-6 = 0.00015791 atm

Reverse Conversion

To convert standard atmospheres back to pascals:

  • Remember, 1 standard atmosphere equals 101325 pascals.
  • To convert 0.00015791 atm to Pa, multiply 0.00015791 x 101325, resulting in 16 Pa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

16 Pa is also equal to:

  • 0.016 kPa
  • 0.00016 bar
  • 0.0023206 psi
About these units

Pascal: SI derived unit of pressure equal to one newton per square meter (N/m²).
