Gas Laws: Standard Conditions



1.0 Gas Laws


1.4 Standard Conditions


Standard conditions refer to the atmospheric pressure at sea level (760 mmHg or 1 atm), and a temperature of 273 K (about 0 oC). They are referred to as standard temperature and pressure (s.t.p). Room temperature and pressure (r.t.p) are taken as 25 oC (298 K) and 760 mmHg respectively; but these are not considered as standard.

Questions 1.4

1. Identify the physical quantity that is common to both standard conditions and room temperature and pressure.

2. The volume of a certain gas at standard temperature and pressure (s.t.p) is 22.4 dm3. What is its volume at room temperature and pressure (r.t.p)?
