📚 Quick Study Guide

    🔍 Ideal Gas Law: $PV = nRT$, where P = pressure, V = volume, n = moles, R = ideal gas constant, T = temperature. 🌡️ Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP): 0°C (273.15 K) and 1 atm. 📐 Molar Volume at STP: 22.4 L/mol for an ideal gas. ⚖️ Stoichiometric Coefficients: Ratios from balanced chemical equations used to determine mole relationships. 💡 Combining Gas Laws with Stoichiometry: Use the ideal gas law to find moles (n) and then apply stoichiometric ratios to relate reactants and products.
