Avogadro’s Law: Volume and Moles
Avogadro’s law states that the volume of a gas is directly related to the number of moles (n) of gas. T and P are constant. 2

STP To make comparisons between different gases, we use arbitrary conditions called standard temperature (273 K) and standard pressure (1 atm). Standard temperature and pressure is abbreviated as STP. Standard temperature (T) = 0 C or 273 K Standard pressure (P) = 1 atm (760 mmHg) 6
7
Molar Volume The molar volume of a gas measured at STP (standard temperature and pressure) is 22.4 L for 1 mole of any gas. Avogadro’s law indicates that 1 mole of any gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L. 7
