Atmosphere (unit) for the purposes of specifying the physical properties of substances, “"standard pressure"” should be precisely . A pressure of 1 atm can also be stated as: Scuba divers and others use the word "atmosphere" and "atm" in relation to pressures that are relative to mean atmospheric pressure at sea level (1.013 bar). For example, a partial pressure of oxygen is calibrated typically using air at sea level, so is expressed in units of atm. The old European unit technical atmosphere (at) is equal to 1 kilogram-force per square centimetre (kgf/cm), Pa. Atmosphere (unit) The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a
Standard enthalpy of formation Standard enthalpy of formation The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states. The standard pressure value "p" = 10 Pa (= 100 kPa = 1 bar) is recommended by IUPAC, although prior to 1982 the value 1.00 atm (101.325 kPa) was used. There is no standard temperature. Its symbol is Δ"H". The superscript Plimsoll on this symbol indicates that the process has occurred under standard conditions at the specified temperature
