How to Make Oxygen at Home
Introduction on making oxygen at home:
Oxygen can be obtained by the process known as electrolysis. it is the process of splitting water into its components hydrogen and oxygen with the help of electricity.
For this fill a glass about `3/4th ` with tap water. Then dissolve tea spoonful of salt to water, because salt helps to improve the conductivity better. Place a cardboard over the glass and place two thin electric wires. So that one end is submerged in water. wrap the other end to the battery in the two terminals.(positive and negative).bubbles will form near the submerged wire and hydrogen gas on the negative terminal and the oxygen gas on the positive terminal. This is how oxygen is obtained.
I like to share this How to Write Chemical Formulas with you all through my article.
Making liquid oxygen at home
The air we breathe mainly contains two gases oxygen and nitrogen. Both the gases liquefies at a low temperature. The air is compressed and cooled, then allowed to expand. Repeat this process to get these two gases cooled to -196degree centigrade. Boiling point of liquid nitrogen is – 196°C. Boiling point of liquid nitrogen is lower than the boiling point of liquid oxygen. so, the liquid is slightly heated to the temperature between -196°C and -182.96°C. now nitrogen is a gas and oxygen in a liquid form. this is how liquid oxygen is made.
Storage of oxygen at home: The question of how to make oxygen is equally important as the storage of oxygen. At home oxygen can be stored is oxygen tanks. The tanks can be stored in a safe corner of home. The place of storage should be well ventilated.
Understanding calculate the atomic weight of the element. is always challenging for me but thanks to all science help websites to help me out.
Precautions for storing oxygen at home
We know that oxygen itself is non combustible but it helps in burning. While storing oxygen precautions are to be taken to store it away from inflammable materials. It should be not be stored in the proximity to furnace, heater, fire places and direct exposure to sunlight and electricity to be avoided.
