How It Works

Gas Volume at STP

Formula

V = n × 22.414 L/mol

At STP (0 C, 1 atm), one mole of any ideal gas occupies 22.414 liters.

Worked Example

Volume of 1 mole of O2 at STP.

moles_gas = 1
  1. 01V = n × 22.414
  2. 02V = 1 × 22.414
  3. 03V = 22.414 L

Frequently Asked Questions

What is STP?

Standard Temperature and Pressure: 0 C (273.15 K) and 1 atm (101.325 kPa).

Does 22.414 L apply to all gases?

To ideal gases. Real gases deviate slightly, especially at high pressures or low temperatures.

What about SATP?

SATP is 25 C and 1 bar, where the molar volume is 24.79 L/mol.
