What does a full oxygen cylinder look like?
Is liquid oxygen sloshing back and forth? Or is it gaseous, or something special between a gas and a liquid?…
Radioactive nuclei can release energy and are therefore unstable. This causes them to decay. Mass and nuclear charge play a crucial role in this process. That's basically how far I've got now. However, what I don't understand is why they decay randomly and what happens specifically in the core. Example: We have potassium 42, which…
For me it depends, for example with schnitzel and liver sausage it is veal and with minced meat it is beef.
The definition of time is change. Nothing changes in a photo, time stands still, the people look eternally young. Nothing changes in my freezer either. Okay, opening and closing the door causes more ice to form from freezing humidity. But nothing changes in the frozen products. Does time stand still in the freezer? I could…
We're currently in Cooperstown, New York, at a KOA campground in our RV. It's raining lightly. We can't tell by smell whether the air is heavily polluted with smoke fumes and particulate matter. Our itinerary will take us to Syracuse, Buffalo, Rochester, Niagara Falls, and then our return flight to Toronto on June 15th. Has…
It is nothing between liquid and gaseous, but somewhat beyond liquid and gaseous, the supercritical state.
If you heat cold liquid oxygen, its density decreases, liquids expand during heating. On the other hand, the density of the gas increases because more and more particles move into the gas phase.
At a certain point, the critical point, there is no difference in density between liquid and gas, the distinction is due. For oxygen, it is 154.7 K / −118.4 °C and 50.4 bar. Oxygen cannot be liquefied by such high pressures above −118° C.
However, it doesn’t matter if oxygen is a gas or a supercritical fluid at room temperature and 200 bar. One should only know that there can be no 2 phases that could cause a swab and that all attempts to liquefy are useless.
It is also possible to call air quite a gas mixture; only pedants would say “mixture of supercritical fluids”.
Great, thank you
the oxygen is gaseous therein at about 200 bar.
