STP (standard temperature and pressure)

Postby Lilyana Villa 3L » Fri Feb 19, 2021 12:14 am

If a problem tells us that the system is under STP conditions (standard temperature and pressure), would the temperature be 0 degrees Celsius or 25 degrees Celsius for this system? I've heard conflicting answers so I'm not sure which one is correct. Thank you in advance!

A UA had told me it's 0 degrees Celsius.

I think that STP is at 0 degrees Celsius. You may have heard 25 degrees Celsius when talking about things in their standard state because 25 is often the temperature given in tables referring to standard states. This is different than STP.

I believe STP is mainly used for gases and means 273.15 K (0 C) and 1 atm, but standard state conditions means 298.15 K (5 C) and applies to elements in their standard states, whether they are solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature.

STP indicates 0 degrees Celcius and 1 atm pressure.

Hi! Standard temperature and pressure (STP) means 0 °C (273 K) and 1 atm. On the other hand, values like ΔG° and ΔH° are reported in SATP, or standard ambient temperature and pressure. SATP conditions are commonly used to report data in chemistry. SATP is 25°C (298.15 K) and 1 bar. Hope this helps! :)

STP would mean that the temperature is at 0 degrees celsius.

STP refers to 0 celsius which converting this becomes 273.15 kelvins.

Temperature at STP is 273 Kelvin, which is 0 degrees Celsius.
