How cold is liquid nitrogen?

It gets as cold at -300 degrees Fahrenheit or colder


What will be the state of liquid nitrogen after boiling?

when the liquid nitrogen is boiled then it will turn into nitrogen gas.


How does liquid nitrogen freeze things?

Liquid nitrogen has a very low temperature of around -196°C, which is much colder than the freezing point of water. When an object is submerged in liquid nitrogen, its high thermal conductivity quickly transfers heat away from the object, causing it to freeze rapidly. This rapid cooling process can solidify or freeze objects almost instantly.


How can you get liquid oxygen using liquid nitrogen?

Liquid nitrogen is colder than liquid oxygen. You use the liquid nitrogen to chill the oxygen in the air and liquid oxygen will form. Liquid water and dry Ice (CO2) should also form due to their presence as well, but not in large quantity. WARNING!! High concentrations of oxygen should be considered dangerous. When exposed to a small ignition source, it can cause flammable materials to combust much like an explosion, and will cause normally non flammable materials to burn readily. Human flesh burns better than wood after being exposed to 100% oxygen for a period of time. Please be careful.


What is the melting point of liquid nitrogen?

Liquid nitrogen has no melting point. A melting point is the temperature when a solid turns into a liquid. Since liquid nitrogen is already a liquid, it has no melting point. It is already melted, compared to solid nitrogen.

Is liquid nitrogen colder than nitrogen gas?

At the same pressure yes, liquid nitrogen is colder than gaseous nitrogen.


Is liquid methane colder than liquid nitrogen?

No, at their boiling points liquid nitrogen is colder than liquid methane.


What burns you as it gets colder?

liquid nitrogen


What is colder liquid nitrogen or liquid oxygen?

Liquid nitrogen is simply nitrogen gas in its liquid state. The stuff is so cold you can consider it like an acid if you are ever stupid enough to stick your finger in there without cryogenic protection. By immersing them in liquid nitrogen you can turn marshmallows hard as bullets, shatter flowers like glass, turn a soft peach into something that can hammer nails into wood, and a whole lot of other things.


How can I freeze specimens to -80 degrees Celsius?

Use a -80 freezer. If you want it colder, use liquid nitrogen.


Why is liquid nitrogen used to fast freeze food instead of liquid oxygen?

There are two reasons. First, liquid nitrogen is colder than liquid oxygen and thus more effective at flash freezing. Second, liquid oxygen is a fire hazard; it creates an atmosphere of pure oxygen that allows substances to burn more easily. Nitrogen does not support combustion.


Does liquid nitrogen Sublimate?

Liquid nitrogen is not dry ice. Dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide and liquid nitrogen is pure nitrogen in liquid form. Dry ice is frozen nitrogen. Liquid nitrogen is also frozen nitrogen, but is also pressurized. That's why it's in large, steel boxes. Chur.

What is the temperature of liquid nitrogen at atmospheric pressure is it always -196C or can it be colder?

Well, let's think about it. What is the temperature of liquid waterat atmospheric pressure ? Is it always 99°C or can it be colder ?Seems like the temperature of any liquid substance can be anywherebetween its boiling point and its freezing point.


Is heluim a gas a liquid or a solid?

helium is a gas less dense than air.


Can you drink hydrogen?

No. Hydrogen is a gas at room temperature and does not become liquid until it is extremely cold, colder than liquid nitrogen. Such low temperatures can cause frostbite in a fraction of a second.
