About this calculator

Ideal gas law: PV = nRT. Holds well for most gases at moderate pressures and temperatures (away from condensation). R = 8.314 J/(mol·K). Note: 22.4 L of any gas at STP (273.15 K, 101.325 kPa) = 1 mole — useful identity. Real gases deviate at high pressure (>10 atm) or low temp (near boiling). For more accuracy, van der Waals or Redlich-Kwong equations.

Frequently asked

Standard Temp + Pressure: 273.15 K (0°C) and 101.325 kPa (1 atm). 1 mol gas = 22.414 L.
