STP

STP is the standard temperature and pressure. For gases and this unit we learned that the temperature at STP is a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius and and a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This information is necessary when other parts of the gas, such as the moles, are wanted to be discovered at STP.
 All of the information listed must be known/used for the equations mentioned in my earlier posts.

Here is are two links that explain this in more depth:

Another thing that is important to know, is the units necessary to complete the equations that you use:

I enjoyed how you thoroughly explained the aspects of STP and further added website for extra practice and understanding.
