Since Oxygen is a gas, it is less dense than water...hense it will float.
If you produced Oxygen underwater, as it is produced, it will buble up. If you place some type of container (filled with water) above the bubbles, the Oxygen will collect there and displace (push out) the water.
Downward displacement of water is unsuitable for collecting gases that dissolve in water because the gas can readily dissolve in the water, leading to a loss of the gas during the collection process. As the gas bubbles rise through the water, a significant portion may dissolve before it can be captured. Additionally, this method does not effectively separate the gas from the water, making it difficult to obtain a pure sample. Alternative methods, such as using gas syringes or inverted gas collection tubes, are more effective for capturing such gases.
because it is highly soluble in water
Objects with irregular shapes (e.g., a crumpled paper ball) or objects that dissolve in water (e.g., sugar) cannot be accurately measured using the water displacement method, as it relies on the volume of water displaced by the object.
A sugar cube, since the sugar cube will dissolve in the water and you will not be able to measure the increase in volume.
Water displacement is a method used to measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object by submerging it in a container of water and measuring the amount of water that is displaced. This helps in determining the volume of the object without the need for complex measurements.
Butane is Hydrocarbon, and hydrocrabons are insoluble in water, so they can be bubbled through water with very little of it going into solution. This makes, water displacement is a good method for collecting them.
Displacement method.... Is the method to find volume of an irregular object
The method of finding the volume of an object with an irregular shape is called displacement method or water displacement method. This method involves submerging the irregular object in water and measuring the volume of water displaced to determine the object's volume.

Finding the volume of an irregular object is called displacement method or water displacement method, where the object is submerged in water in a container and the volume of water displaced is measured to determine the volume of the object.
Use the water displacement method
Oxygen gas can be produced in the lab by heating a compound that contains oxygen, such as potassium chlorate, and collecting the gas released through a tube. Another method is through the electrolysis of water, where water is split into hydrogen and oxygen gases using an electric current.
The water displacement method is a way of measuring how much volume an object takes up. You fill a container with water, place the object in the water, and observe how much the water level rises.

Using the eureka can or the water displacement method.
water displacement or the displacement method
They are both the same. displacement method is another name for Archimedes' principle
