Term
What does STP stand for?
Definition

Standard temperature and pressure.

Term
What are the given variables involved in STP?
Definition
Temperature (T) is 0oC or 273.15K and pressure (P) is 1atm or 760torr or 101,325Pa.
Term
How much volume does exactly one mole of a gas occupy at STP?
Definition
It will occupy exactly 22.4L.
Term
What does Avogadro's Hypothesis state?
Definition

His hypothesis states that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal number of molecules.

Term
Determine how the volume of CO2 produced from the decomposition of CaCO3 at STP would be calculated.
Definition

g(CaCO3)(molCaCO3)(molCO2   )(L@STP  )=L(CO2

              gCaCO3      molCaCO3 1molCO2

Term
How can you quantify gases?
Definition

Gases can be quantified using pressure, volume, moles and temperature.

Term
Define Boyle's Law.
Definition
Boyle's Law states that at constant temperature and matter, pressure is inversely related to volume (that is, for any given variable x, x=pv).
