Resumo

The Committee on Nomenclature, Terminology & Symbols (NTS) serves the American Chemical Society community through its review, recommendation, and action on matters related to the title of the committee. In the past, we have provided comments to the International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and other organizations on issues of concern to chemists. Those comments reflect a desire to maintain a common core of units, nomenclature rules, definitions, and actions that can facilitate and ease communication among chemists across the world. NTS encourages input and involvement from ACS members on fundamental issues such as these that impact our everyday work as chemists. The standard temperature and pressure (STP) definition for gases as outlined in the "IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology," 2nd Ed., also known as the "Gold Book," dictates the use of 273.15 K (0 °C) for standard temperature and 105 pascals (1 bar) for standard pressure.
