What is standard pressurestandard temperature?
I know that it is 0*C at and pressure is 100kPa but why use it? (Or 273 *K at 100kPa) is this because pressure and temperature are proportional to find volume?
Yes, commonly called STP. It's used because gas volumes vary with both temp and pressure, so to compare like with like, you have to specify a common set of conditions. Freezing point and atmospheric pressure are as convenient as any. But Americans also use NTP (normal temp and press.) - I believe that means 60°F but don't rely on that.
How do you convert STP(standard temperature andpressure) to units of Kelvinand inches of mercury?
STP stands for standard temperature and pressure. How would I convert it to units of kelvin / inches of mercury?
STP is 25 degrees C and 760 mm Hg (1 atmosphere of pressure) 25 degrees C is: 273.15 degrees K plus 25 = 298.15 degrees K 760 mm Hg = 406.79372 in h20
What is the pressure atstandard temperature?
A gas has a pressure of 0.370 atm at 50.0
the equation is (starting pressure)/(starting temperature) = (ending pressure)/(ending temperature) Substitute in: 0.370 atm / 323 K = X atm / 273 K, where X is ending pressure 0.370 atm * 273 K / 323 K = X atm 0.313 atm = X (ending pressure)
