Standard conditions refer to a set of agreed-upon reference conditions for temperature and pressure used in scientific experiments to ensure consistency and comparability of results. These conditions typically involve a temperature of 0°C (273.15 K) and a pressure of 1 atm (101.325 kPa), although variations exist depending on the field and context.

A scientific experiment is a way to learn about the world by trying things out and seeing what happens. Scientists use experiments to ask questions and find answers by looking at what changes when they do something different.
