Further explanation

Given

24.18 Liters of Neon gas at STP

Required

The number of moles

Solution

There are 2 conditions that are usually used as a reference in chemical calculations (mainly for determining the volume per mole of a gas or the molar volume), STP and RTP

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters / mol.

So mol for 24.18 L :

= 24.18 : 22.4

= 1.079 moles
