Question

What is the value of standard temperature and pressure?

• A. 0 degree Celcius and 76 cm of Hg
• B. 25 degree Celcius and 76 cm of Hg
• C. 25 degree Celcius and 760 cm of Hg
• D. 0 degree Celcius and 760 cm of Hg

Answer 1

The correct option is A 0 degree Celcius and 76 cm of Hg

Since the volume of a gas varies greatly with the change in temperature in pressure, particular values of temperature and pressure are taken as standard values for measuring the volume of the gas.

The standard temperature and pressure are:

0 degree Celcius and 76 cm of Hg
