There are several ways to obtain oxygen, the most common is to use electrolysis with water where they charge a negative anode and a positive cathode in water to separate the hydrogen and oxygen, the oxygen will go to the negative anode and can be collected from there.

How nitrogen and hydrogen is obtained?
Nitrogen is generally obtained by a industrial plant that takes in air from the atmosphere, and separates it from the oxygen. Hydrogen is generally obtained from an industrial plant that takes in a hydrocarbon and water and splits it from the hydrocarbon and water. It makes a byproduct of CO2. It may be obtained from water alone by passing an electrical current through water and splitting it from the oxygen. This is a more well known method, but very uncommon.
How many atoms of oxygen is there in calcium carbonate?
There are three atoms of oxygen per calcium carbonate molecule. name: chalk IUPAC name: calcium carbonate compound formula: CCaO3 formula: CaCO3 (This information was obtained from http://www.wolframalpha.com)
How is hydrogen processed?
One method for creating hydrogen is through methane reforming. Natural gas (which is mostly methane) is reacted, sometimes with steam, sometimes with oxygen. This natural gas degrades into hydrogen, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in varying amounts. This reaction takes place above 500 C and is used industrially to create hydrogen.
Iodine is obtained from which microorganisms?
Iodine is not obtained from microorganisms; iodine is obtained from minerals.
How can you obtain chlorine?
It can be produced in laboratory quantities by the reaction of hydrochloric acid with manganese dioxide. Industrially it is produced by electrolysis of sodium chloride dissolved in water.
How is oxygen obtained by?
Oxygen is obtained by inhaling or breathing. This motion takes oxygen down to your lungs, and to small sacs call alveoli where oxygen is transmitted into the blood.
Where is oxygen obtained for mammals?
Obtained by Earths atmosphere which is 20% Oxygen and processed by the aveoli (part of the lung).
Oxygen can be obtained by heating?
With the exception of nuclear fusion oxygen cannot be obtained by heating anything. Certainly no heating process on earth is capable of producing oxygen.
Where is oxygen obtained in mammals?
All mammals obtain their oxygen from the air.
Can oxygen be obtained?
um. YEAH. DUHHH.
Where is oxygen obtained from?
"Oxygen is obtained for industrial use by the fractional distillation of liquid air, by the electrolysis of water, or by heating manganese oxide with potassium chlorate.
How many grams of oxygen can be obtained from 5.00 g of KCIO3?
69. 00 g of oxygen
What do you get when you electrolyse water?
Hydrogen and oxygen are the products of electroysis of water .
How are esters manufatured industrially?
esters are usually prepared industrially by reaction of corresponding carboxylic acid and alcohol.
How is oxygen obtained by plants?
Through a process called photosynthesis.
What gas that obtained sea water?
I think its mercury
Reptiles used what to absorb oxygen?
Most reptiles use diffusion through the skin to obtained oxygen.
