How to Convert Liters to Moles of Gases
Conversion Formula
Moles = Volume (Liters) ÷ 22.4
Converting liters to moles is a common step in many chemistry problems—especially when working with gases. At standard temperature and pressure (STP), there’s a simple rule of thumb that makes the conversion quick and easy:
1 mole of any ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters at STP.
Liters to Moles Examples
Convert 100 Liters to Moles
Formula:
Moles = 100 ÷ 22.4
Calculation:
Moles ≈ 4.46 moles
So, 100 liters of gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) is approximately 4.46 moles.
Convert 1000 Liters to Moles
Calculation:
Moles = 1000 ÷ 22.4
Moles ≈ 44.64 moles
Therefore, 1000 liters of gas is equivalent to 44.64 moles under STP conditions.
These quick calculations make it easy to understand how much gas you’re dealing with in terms of moles—especially helpful in chemistry experiments, stoichiometry, and gas law problems. You can always use the calculator to save time and avoid manual math!
