4 Solution 3) 2.4 L STEP 1 V1 = 1.5 L V2 = ? V increasesConditions Conditions 2 Know Predict V1 = 1.5 L V2 = ? V increases n1 = mole n2 = 1.2 moles n increases STEP 2 Solve for unknown V2: V2 = V1 x n2 n1 STEP 3 Substitute values and solve for V2: V2 = 1.5 L x 1.2 moles He = L 0.75 mole He

5 STP The volumes of gases can be compared at STP(Standard Temperature and Pressure) when they have the same temperature Standard temperature (T) = 0 °C or 273 K the same pressure Standard pressure (P) = 1 atm (760 mmHg)

6 Molar Volume The molar volume of a gasis measured at STP (standard temperature and pressure) is 22.4 L for 1 mole of any gas

7 Molar Volume as a Conversion FactorThe molar volume at STP has about the same volume as 3 basketballs can be used to form 2 conversion factors: 22.4 L and mole 1 mole L
