At 8000 feet above sea level, there is approximately 25% less oxygen available compared to sea level. This reduction in oxygen levels can make breathing more difficult and can affect physical performance for individuals not acclimated to high altitudes. It's important to acclimatize properly when ascending to high altitudes to avoid altitude sickness.

Why is there no oxygen on mt Everest?

At the summit of Mount Everest there is approximately only 33% of the oxygen that is available at sea level.The higher you climb any mountain the less oxygen there is to breathe. This is why climbers carry oxygen cylinders on there backs to help them breathe more easliy.The proportion of Oxygen to other elements is actually very similar to sea level, but the total amount of air or atmosphere is only about one-third that of sea-level, so there is about one-third as much oxygen as there is at sea level.


How much oxygen is available 5.5 kilometers above sea level?

From sea level to an altitude of 300 meters there is enough oxygen. After 300 meters of altitude, there is enough oxygen. 4500 meters to 4800 meters of altitude and low atmospheric pressure due to lack of oxygen to human breath.


What is percentage of oxygen at sea level?

no; oyxgen levels are the amount of oxygen in the air where as sea level is a reference point for people to get a good idea of how tall of how low something is


How could you control the level of oxygen in the tank?

well you can control the pressure of it but by level, that depends on how much oxygen is in the tank. the easiest way to change the pressure of oxygen can be by heating or cooling the tank.


How much oxygen have you got in the air?

The Earth's atmosphere is composed of roughly 21% oxygen. This level of oxygen in the air is ideal for human respiratory needs.


Is it easier to breathe on top of Mount Whitney?

No, it would be harder to breathe on top of Mount Whitney (or any other mountain) do to the air being thinner. The thin air at higher elevations has less oxygen in it than at sea level (air at 10,000 to 14,000 ft has only 60-70 percent of the amount of oxygen in the air at sea level). Therefore with each breath you don't get much oxygen.

How much oxygen do you take from the air?

That is a function of your current activity level and the calories that you are burning.


Why do you store oxygen gas in the liquid form?

Because oxygen takes up much less space for the same amount of oxygen as a liquid rather than a gas.


What is the major advantage of air?

The concentration of oxygen in the air is much much higher than in the water. This make obtaining oxygen much easier and strenuous activity (to a level higher than that is water) possible.


How does a oxygen meter work?

An oxygen meter, also known as a pulse oximeter, works by using light to measure the oxygen saturation of your blood. It emits light through your fingertip and detects how much is absorbed, which changes based on the level of oxygen in your blood. The device then calculates your oxygen saturation level and displays it on the screen.


Does oxygen exist in mars?

Yes, oxygen does exist on Mars, but in much lower concentrations compared to Earth. The atmosphere on Mars is about 95% carbon dioxide, with only about 0.1% oxygen. This low oxygen level makes it difficult for humans to breathe on Mars without assistance.
