Why does oxygen exist in gaseous state?

Oxygen, on earth, is a gas because it is in a gaseous state. On mars, it is liquid. The physical state of any element like hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, sodium, sulfur, etc depends on the ambient temperature and pressure. The earth's atmosphere doesn't pressurize oxygen enough for it to turn into a liquid, nor is cold enough for oxygen to condense into a liquid. Hence oxygen is a gas.
