The correct response is:

The container holding the gases must be at standard temperature and pressure.

This is because the conversion factor of 22.7 L/mol is derived from the behavior of ideal gases at standard temperature (0 degrees Celsius or 273.15 K) and pressure (1 atm). This volume corresponds to one mole of an ideal gas under these conditions.
