No, it is not. Pascal is the unit (SI) of pressure. 1 Pascal=1 Newton/metre2

What is the force on a surface divided by the area of that surface?
The force that is exerted on a surface divided by the area of the area is pressure. The standard unit of pressure is the Pascal.
What is pressure for?
Pressure is defined as the force per unit area applied in a direction perpendicular to the surface. The standard unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa). This did not answer my question on how pressure is used.

What is the measure with which air molecules push on a surface?
That is usually described in units of pressure - force per unit area. The SI unit for pressure is the pascal, equivalent to newton/meter2.
What is the measure of the force with whicn air molecules push on a surface?
What is normally used here is not a force, but a force per unit area; this is called pressure. The SI unit for pressure is the pascal.
How do you calculate Pascal As in the SI unit for pressure?
Pressure [pascal] = force [newton] divided by area [m2].
What is the SI unit it of pressure which is equal to 1 N exerted over 1 m2?
'Newton' is a unit of force, not pressure. They're different.The pressure on some area is the total force on the whole area divided by the area.The SI unit of pressure is the Pascal. 1 pascal of pressure means 1 newton of forcespread out over 1 square meter of area.
How do you define pressure?
The pressure that pushes down on us all day.
What is the metric of pressure?
Pressure is measured in any unit of force divided by any unit of area. The SI unit of pressure is the newton per square metre, which is called the pascal (Pa) after the seventeenth-century philosopher and scientist Blaise Pascal.
What does the amount of force exerted on a given area mean?
Force applied on unit area gives pressure. S.I. unit is pascal.
What is a scentence for the word pascal as in a measurement?
The pascal is the SI unit for pressure. 1 pascal of pressure means 1 newton of force on each square meter of area.
What equals force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted?
That is called pressure. For example, the SI unit for pressure is the Pascal, which is equal to newtons / square meters.
