Answer:

B) The volume is the same for any gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the ideal gas equation as:-


PV=nRT

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J/ K mol

At STP,

Pressure = 1 atm

Temperature = 273.15 K

So, applying the values we get that 1 mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L

Thus, correct option is:- B) The volume is the same for any gas.
