How many liters of gaseous oxygen in a cubic foot of liquid oxygen?

Approximately 860 liters of gaseous oxygen can be obtained from 1 cubic foot of liquid oxygen when it vaporizes. This expansion occurs due to the change in state from liquid to gas.


Is gas and oxygen the same thing?

No, a gas is a state of matter. oxygen can be found in either liquid or gaseous states


Oxygen is liquid of room temperature?

Actually, what you breathe in is a mixture of nitrogen (~79%) and oxygen (~21%). It means that both of them (therefore oxygen, too) are in gaseous stat (not liquid).


Does oxygen boil only in liquid state?

Yes, oxygen boils at a temperature of -183 degrees Celsius, which is when it transitions from a liquid to a gas state. Oxygen does not have a boiling point in its gaseous form.


Would you be able to breath liquid oxygen?

No, it is not safe for humans to breathe liquid oxygen. Oxygen needs to be in a gaseous state in order to be breathable. Liquid oxygen is extremely cold and would cause damage to the respiratory system if inhaled.


How does liquid oxygen boil?

Liquid oxygen boils when its temperature rises enough to overcome the attractive forces between oxygen molecules, causing them to transition from a liquid state to a gaseous state. This process, known as vaporization, occurs at a boiling point of -183 degrees Celsius for oxygen.


What is state of oxygen at negative 50 degrees Celsius?

At -50 degrees Celsius, oxygen would be in a gaseous state. Oxygen condenses into a liquid state at temperatures below -183 degrees Celsius.


How can one create liquid oxygen?

Liquid oxygen can be created by cooling gaseous oxygen to very low temperatures, typically below -183 degrees Celsius. This process involves compressing and purifying the oxygen gas before it is cooled to its liquid state.


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.


What is the common names for solid liquid and gaseous states of water?

solid = ice liquid = water gaseous = water vapour


Does oxygen turn into a liquid at -50 degrees Celsius?

Yes, oxygen turns into a liquid at temperatures below its boiling point of -183 degrees Celsius. At -50 degrees Celsius, oxygen would still be in its gaseous state.


Is liquid in a gaseous state known as vapor?

Yes, when a liquid turns into a gaseous state, it is known as vapor. This process is called vaporization or evaporation.
