Which temperature and pressure are you referring too? What container into which environment?

What does kl as a unit stand for? Is it kilo liter??

More input needed.

O-level Chemistry: "A gram-mole of gas occupies 22.4 litres at Standard Temperature and Pressure". The rest is arithmetic.

Are you the OP?

If so, do you really mean 6 megalitre? That's a lot of liquid argon. Or 6 milliltre?

You need to find the density of liquid argon. I don't know offhand but I'd be surprised if it's much different from water so if you just want a rough estimate use 1000kg/m3. That gives you the mass, then use #2 to work out volume of gas at the temperature and pressure.

No, the liquid argon is 6Kl. The OP asked for the amount of gas. For water, the factor is ~1600:1, for ammonia ~600:1; so I "interpolated."

Yes I know the question is about liquid. That's why I said "it's a lot of liquid argon". But what does the OP mean by kl? What did you mean by WAG: 6Ml in #3?

Also the factors you quote depend on the temp and pressure of the gas.
