What is the air mixture in scuba?
Same as the air you breath everyday, aprox 21% Oxygen 79% Nitrogen
If the temperature is increased What happens to the partial pressure of oxygen in a sample of air?
In a sample of air, an increase in temperature will result in an increase in the partial pressure of oxygen.
Can nitrogen rust things?
No: Rusting occurs by the combination of ferrous metals with oxygen from air or water, and nitrogen can not form the same compounds as oxygen does.
Is oxygen part of the air?
No. Oxygen is an element that typically comes in the form of O2. Air is a mixture of gasses and Oxygen is just one of them. Air is about 21% oxygen and 78% nitrogen with another 1% being a variety of other gasses.
Why do iron and magnisium burn more in oxygen than in air?
Iron and magnesium burn in air under the right circumstances becasue they combine rapidly with oxygen. (Fire is just the rapid combination of oxygen or another oxidizer, wiht a fuel.) Oxygen is only about 20% of air. If you provide pure, 100%, oxygen under the same circumstances, there is more oxygen to combine with the iron or magnesium, so they can burn faster.
Is air and oxygen are the same gas?
air has oxygen in it but also other gases, e.g. helium nitrogen.
What is properties of oxygen gas?
It has the same density as air.
Is humidified oxygen the same concentration as regular oxygen?
I want to know is 28% humidified O2 the same as room air?
Where do deers get their oxygen?
...From the air. They're mammals, they get their oxygen the same way as all other mammals.
What is one property of oxygen gas?
It has the same density as air.
Is air the same as carbon doixed?
Air is not the same as carbon dioxide but does contain a small amount of the gas. Air also contains oxygen and nitrogen.
What percentage of oxygen do you breath from the air?
100%. All of the oxygen that I breathe comes from the air! The answer that you were probably after, but did not ask, was about the percentage of oxygen in the air that we breathe. The questions may sound similar but they are not the same. The answer is a little over 20%.
How does a cheetah obtain oxygen?
The cheetah gets oxygen by breathing air in the same manner as do other mammals.
What happens to oxygen level at high altitudes?
The oxygen level remains about the same, but the density of the air is reduced.
What are the differences between the surrounding air and exhaled air?
The air you breathe out is little changed from the air you breathe in, except that the oxygen content is somewhat lower - your body extracts some (not all) of the oxygen. The exhaled air is the same except for slightly lowered oxygen content.
Does compressed air contain oxygen?
Compressed air is the same as the air we breathe. It contains oxygen along with other gasses, most notably nitrogen and traces of other gases. Although, It is NOT 100% oxygen
How do sheep obtain oxygen?
By breathing air the same way that humans do.
