Chapter 11, Problem 22E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The terms standard temperature and pressure are to be explained. The molar volume of the gas is to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

STP stands for standard temperature and pressure.

Volume occupied by $1\text{ mol}$ of gas under STP conditions is called the molar volume.

The ideal gas equation is:

$PV=nRT$

Here, $V$ is the molar volume, $P$ is the pressure, $n$ is the number of moles, $R$ is the gas constant and $T$ is the temperature.
