Yes, if not given a specific value in your word problem for room temperature, I'm sure that is a reasonable assumption.

Hello,

Yes this assumption can usually be made if temperature isn't specified.

Hope this helps.

Yes, i think it is a fair assumption to make, unless otherwise stated.

Yes, according to Dr.Lavelle, unless otherwise stated it is safe to assume that the reaction occurs at 25 degrees celsius.

Like others have said this is the general agrees upon assumption when there is no specific value stated.

If you are not given a temperature I think it would be same to assume that it is 25 degrees celcius.

Yes, when we are not given a temperature, we can assume room temp to always be 25 degrees C.

When solving the problems given in the course, room temperature can always be assumed to be 25 degrees Celsius unless it is specified to be a different value.

It is safe to infer that 25 degrees Celsius is the room temperature unless the question states otherwise.

That's correct! I think unless otherwise stated, we can assume the temperature is 25 °C.

If the question doesn't state what the temperature of the environment, we can assume that it is 25 degrees Celsius.

Unless otherwise specified, it would be safe to assume that room temperature is equivalent to 25 degrees Celsius. Hope this helps!

Yup, if not specified by the question then we'll assume the room temperature is 25 degrees Celsius.

Yes, the 25 degress Celsius is room temperature. You can always assume this for a problem unless a problem says otherwise.

We can assume that the temperature (if not given) is 25 C, as it is a standard temp used in most equations.

Hi, I know there's a bunch of replies but I asked this on a midterm and I was told to always assume 25C/298K unless otherwise specified :)
