Question

why volume of gases are equal at stp

Answer 1

Volume of 1 mol of gas is equal to 22.4L at STP and NTP and not any amount of volume. ... The gas will still do the same thing, except the molecules don't get stopped by a wall. The greater the kinetic energy, the more volume they need to maintain constant pressur

Answer 2

Only ideal gases are guaranteed to occupy 22.4 L/mol at STP. ... The reason that ideal gases share a molar volume of 22.4 L at STP is not related to diffusion, but rather to the assumption of: (a) non-interacting gas particles that are (b) effectively zero-sized relative to the mean distance between them
