Question on PV=nRT?

Question

How does this equation handle gases that are not at STP? Please include an example

Answer 1

well. it has a pressure variable and temperature variable..

what more could i say..

Answer 2

Of course.  That's the whole point.

If all gases were at STP, chemistry would be awfully dull.

Suppose we have 0.500 moles of nitrogen gas in a 200 mL container at a temperature of 1000 C.  What will be the pressure of the gas?

P = nRT / V

P = 0.500 mol x (0.0821 Latm/molK) x 1273K / 0.200 L

P = 261 atm.

261 atm is certainly not standard pressure.
