Question

At STP (0°C, 1 atm), 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies:
  1. A
    22.4 L
    Correct
  2. B
    24 L
  3. C
    22.4 mL
  4. D
    11.2 L

Correct answer

22.4 L

Explanation

Molar volume of ideal gas at STP (0°C = 273 K, 1 atm): V = nRT/P = (1)(0.0821)(273)/1 = 22.4 L. At SATP (25°C, 1 bar), molar volume ≈ 24.8 L.
