What is the difference between atmospheres and torr?

Both measure pressure, but they are commonly used in different contexts. Atmospheres are used as a reference for standard atmospheric pressure. Torr are used in lab work and vacuum technology.

Where are atmospheres and torr used?

In practice: Atmospheres are used as a reference for standard atmospheric pressure. Torr are used in lab work and vacuum technology.

Why does 1 atmosphere equal 760 torr?

Because pressure units are defined with a fixed relationship (often relative to the pascal). To convert, multiply by that factor.
