What is the volume of a gas at RTP and STP?

Well, you'll have to give your equation of state if you want my answer to be more accurate... But since you did not mention ideality, I will have to assume an ideal gas...
We also utilize the latest RTP and STP from IUPAC:
- RTP:
#25^@ "C"# and#"1 bar"# , just like for the thermodynamic standard state - STP:
#0^@ "C"# and#"1 bar"# , after 1982, i.e. today...
And thus, its MOLAR volume is given by
#color(blue)(barV_(RTP)^"id") = (RT_(RTP))/P#
#= (("0.083145 L"cdot"bar/mol"cdot"K")("298.15 K"))/("1 bar")#
#=# #color(blue)("24.790 L/mol")#
or
#color(blue)(barV_(STP)^"id") = (RT_(STP))/P#
#= (("0.083145 L"cdot"bar/mol"cdot"K")("273.15 K"))/("1 bar")#
#= (273.15)/(298.15)barV_(RTP)^"id"#
#=# #color(blue)("22.711 L/mol")#
