The pressure of a gas in a container is 152 mm Hg, the equivalent to 0,2 atm (standard atmosphere).
One atmosphere equals 760,00 mm Hg.
p(gas) = 152 mm Hg/1 · 1 atm/760 mm Hg.
p(gas) = 0,2 atm = 20265 Pa = 20,265 kPa = 0,20265 bar.
The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101325 Pa (1,01325 bar).
