All gases are compressible. Depending on their state. Oxygen can be a gas, a solid or a liquid. Liquid oygen (very very cold) would not be compressible, solid oxygen (frozen) would not either but as a gas at standard conditions - room temperature and pressure - it can be compressed. For example, compressed oxygen is used in emergency vehicles to keep people alive if they are injured or sick. It is extremely flammable, almost explosive so no smoking near a compressed oxygen gas cylinder, OK?

∙ 14y agoKnowing that plasma is a distinct phase in chemistry - physics, is plasma compressible like a gas, slightly compressible like a liquid or non-compressible like a solid?

It can be compressed but to compresses it you must find a way to do so without touching it as it would lose the charge of the gas.

Which property explains why a lot of oxygen can be pumped into a very small container?
Yes as the oxygen (gas) can be compressed into the very small container which is a property.
Why are gases more compressible than liquids or solids?
Gases are the only ones that are compressible in fact. They are compressible because the atoms in gases are very far apart, and when you compress them, their atoms can fill up these spaces.
Soil is an example of what matter?
Solid is an example of SOLID matter. Since it can easily compressible but if we take the molecules of soil, then we can conclude that soil is type of SOLID matter.
Is oxygen 17 and oxygen 18 the same isotopes of oxygen?
they are different isotopes of oxygen, oxygen-17 has one more neutron than oxygen-16 making it slightly heavier. Oxygen-17 will react slightly slower than oxygen-16 since it has more mass.
What is called the Ratio between oxygen uptake and oxygen usage?
ratio between oxygen usage to oxygen uptake is called as Oxygen extraction ratio
What physical property is shared by oxygen helium and carbon dioxide?
Being gasses, each of these is compressible.
Is butane gas compressible or non compressible?
Butane gas IS compressible.
Is salt compressible?
no salt is not compressible
Is air a compressible fluid?
Yes, air is a compressible fluid. Water is not a compressible fluid.
Why sponge is compressible?
Sponge is compressible because it is porous.
Is sodium chloride compressible?
Sodium chloride is compressible.
Is carbon monoxide compressible?
All gasses are compressible
Is steel compressible?
anything is compressible. it depends on how hard you compress it.
How can you use compressible in a sentence?
One of the synonyms for "compressible" is "squeezable". I've noticed that a sponge is more compressible when it is soaking wet.
Water is a non compssible fluid?
Fluids include liquids and gasses. Liquids are not compressible. Gasses are compressible. Water is a liquid and it not compressible.
How many kg oxygen gas capacity in 1 cubic meter volume?
Gas is compressible. As long as you can keep increasing the pressure, you can stuff as much oxygen into a bottle or a tank as you want to, until it bursts.
Sponge is compressible still its solidwhy?
Sponge is solid yet it is compressible the presence of the inter particle spaces or voids which are filled with air and make it compressible.
