One standard atmosphere is defined as a sea-level-extrapolated pressure of 1013.25 hectoPascals (millibars) at 0oC, or about 29.92" to use the most commonly-reported format. There is more to the standard atmosphere than this however - it also has other parameters such as temperature, density, etc., for a wide range of altitudes. It was established by the International Organization for Standardization in 1975. There are a couple of other 'standard atmospheres' floating around but all are identical up to 32km altitude. I'm not sure, and was unable to find out, if chemical composition is part of the definition.
