because most of the time the oxygen in pressurized so if you puncture it the air will go out all at once and the speed of the air can hurt someone or something.

Above is correct- a full oxygen tank is typically at about 2000 lbs per sq inch pressure. Also, things that burn in air can explode in oxygen- it increases the speed of combustion greatly.

What is the effect of replacing iodine with other oxidizing agents?
The effect of replacing iodine with other oxidizing agents is that the substance being stained will not be stained. Iodine is the only oxidizing agent to dye the material.
2 major oxidizing agents of cell?
An oxidizing agent tends to release oxygen when the temperature rises over a certain point. Two major oxidizing agents of the cell are oxygen and ferric salts.
Substances that cause the oxidation of other substances are?
oxidizing agents
Strengths of oxidizing and reducing agents?
One way to quantify whether a substance is a strong oxidizing agent or a strongreducing agent is to use the oxidation-reduction potential or redox potential. Strong oxidizing agents have low electron-transfer potential.
What are mild oxidizing agents?
those reagents which oxidize even very reactive compounds having weaker bond are called mild oxidising agents
Are antiseptics oxidizing agents?
Not necessary, but most of the oxidizing agents are antiseptic

Are organic matters oxidizing agents?
No
What is the definition for oxidizing agents?
The meaning of oxidizing is generally able to oxydate, to cause an oxydation.
Are bases oxidizing agents?
Whether something is an oxidizing or reducing agent is not dependent on whether it is an acid or a base. Some bases can act as oxidizing agents while others are reducing agents. Some can act as either oxidizers or reducers depending on the reaction.

Are alkali metal elements strong oxidizing agents?
Yes, it is true.
What oxidizing agents can be used to oxidize alcohols?
Ch3-coh-ch3
Why is there problem with chromium as oxidizing agents in chemistry?
Because Chromium is a metal and really wants to be a reducing agent. I can not think of a scenario where it would be an oxidizing agent
Which compounds are used as the oxidizing and reducing reagents in Ryobi batteries?
Oxidizing agents for Ryobi batteries include potassium nitrate, halogens and nitric acid. Reducing agents include sulfite compounds, earth metals and formic acid.
