About Standard Temperature and Pressure

Standard temperature and pressure provide reference conditions for gas calculations: 0°C or 273 K and, in the usual school convention, 1 atm pressure. Questions use these conditions to relate pressure, volume, temperature and amount of gas, including the molar volume of an ideal gas, about 22.4 dm³.
