State
IUPAC redefined standard pressure from 1 atmosphere to exactly 1 bar in 1982; standard temperature stayed 273.15 kelvin.
Show
Under this convention, one mole of an ideal gas occupies about 22.7 liters at STP, slightly more than the 22.4-liter figure under the older 1-atm convention.
Watch for
Reading STP without checking the source's pressure convention silently swaps in the wrong standard molar volume.
