How do you chemically separate oxygen from air?

Oxygen from air is separated by first condensing it into a liquid and then using fractional distillation to separate nitrogen and other gases. That is the only way to separate oxygen from air on industrial scale.


Latin word for oxygen?

The Romans didn't know about oxygen as a substance separate to air, so there is no Latin word for oxygen. The Latin word for air is aura.


What is the most economical and effective Principle of producing oxygen gas on large scales with maximum purity?

The largest industrial process to produce pure oxygen is done through fractional distillation of liquefied air.


What was xenon discovered in?

It was discovered in liquefied air.


How the nitrogen is separated from air. what is the needed temperature for that?

You need to get the air liquid and then evaporate it - oxygen evaporates more easily than nitrogen. At normal pressure, air gets liquefied at about 78 kelvin (-195 degrees Celsius).


How do you separate the gases in oxygen need answers fast?

The air is first filtered. This is to remove any dust particles or any other particles. Next the air is liquefied - compressed down to its liquid form. To remove carbon dioxide the air is filtered through sodium hydroxide. Because different gases boil at different temperatures the liquid air is heated. The first gas to be separated from this liquid air is nitrogen (at -1960c). Next Argon comes out (at -1890c). Although this doesn't get rid of all the other tiny bits of gas in the oxygen left over, this is the way to separate the most important gases in the air we breathe.


What is liquefied to launch space rockets?

Oxygen, and sometimes hydrogen as well.


How oxygen look?

Oxygen when liquefied looks like water with a bit blue color (baby blue).


Is air element or mixture or compound?

Air is a mixture; the properties of the constituents of air (oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide etc.) are not changed, and the mass ratios among them are not as consistent as they would be if air were a compound. On distillation of liquefied air, nitrogen predominantly distills off first, leaving behind oxygen in the liquid form. This is characteristic of a mixture, not of a compound.
