At RTP the assumed temperature is 293ºK, at STP the assumed temperature is 273ºK. The formula used for this is Pressure x Volume = moles x ideal gas constant x Temperature. So Volume = (moles x ideal gas constant x temperature) / Pressure Assuming Pressure and moles stays constant... Volume at RTP = ( 1 mole x 8.31451 x 293 K ) / ( 101.325 Pa) Volume at RTP = 24.0429 Volume at RTP = 24.0dm^3 Volume at STP = ( 1 mole * 8.31451 * 273 K ) / ( 101.325 Pa) Volume at STP = 22.4017 Volume at STP = 22.4dm^3

Molar volume of liquid is greater than molar volume of gas. why?

That's not true. The molar volume of a gas is always greater than the molar volume of a liquid. I can't think of any exceptions to this.


If an insufficient amount of a liquid unknown had been used how would this affect the value of the experimental molar mass?

When the unknown liquid is heated and turned into vapor, the unknown will not occupy the whole container. In the equation to find the molar mass (nRT)/PV, the volume will be greater than the actually volume of the unknown, thus leaving a molar mass that is less than the actual molar mass
