The correct answer is 22.4 Litre.

Key Points

  • At standard temperature and pressure (STP) one mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L.
  • The standard temperature is 0°C (273.15 K) and the standard pressure is 1 atm.

Important Points

Avogadro’s hypothesis states that:

  • Equal volumes of any gas at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of particles.

The ideal gas equation is:

  • PV = nRT
  • n=Number of moles
  • R=The gas constant.
  • The SI value for R is 8.31441 J K-1 mol-1.
