Just about, but we'd find it tough. Normally, the air that we breathe is 70% Nitrogen, 20% Oxygen, 8% Carbon Dioxide and 2% rare gases such as argon, neon etc.
Living in 10% Oxygen would cut our Oxygen supply by a half- we could just about survive in the short term, but would be weakened, feel dizzy and tired, and have to breathe more rapidly to compensate for the reduction.
In the long term, such a reduction would cause serious damage to our nervous and muscular tissues, including brain tissue and the neural pathways throughout our bodies. Our muscles would become permanently weakened and less able to function, and some brain damage could occur, which would in the long run lead to premature death.

∙ 12y agohumans can survive but would have a great deal of trouble as our life span would be halved as oxygen is not all we breathe. animals are the same, however bacteria will survive as some do not respire.

Why is it difficult to obtain 100 percent oxygen from fractional distilation?
It forms an azeotrope.
If air is 20.9 percent oxygen by volume what is the volume of air that contains 225 ml of oxygen?
Divide 225ml by 20.9, then multiply by 100.
What percent of human DNA comes from viruses?
It seems only 8% of the entire human genoma.
What is the percent of NaOCl in bleach?
Sodium Carbonate has a chemical formula of Na2CO3. Percent composition is calculated using masses. The mass of oxygen in this compound is 3(16) = 48. The total mass is 2(23) + 1(12) + 3(16) = 106. Part/Whole * 100% = 48/106 * 100% = 45.2%
Do you have to have an oxygen mask in mercury?
(1)The temperature of Mercury is about 100 degree celcius.Generally the human body cannot bear such a high temperature. (2)Human body needs Oxygen to survive.It is an essential factor for our body.

We do not use 100% of the Oxygen we inhale. we use only around 20% of it. Birds are more efficient and can absorb around 40% of their intake.
How find percent compsotion of oxygen in Na2O?
To find the percent composition of oxygen in Na2O, find the total molar mass of the compound. Then, divide the molar mass of oxygen by the molar mass of the compound, and multiply by 100% to get the percent oxygen.
Would oxygen be present if water did not exist?
