Methods obtaining O 2<br />

Industrial<br />

Fractioned distilling of liquid air. O2 have b.p. = -182.9 °C and<br />

N2 have b.p. = -195.7 °C, and thus may be ea<strong>si</strong>ly separated one<br />

to each other. Oxygen are kept in steel tubes at pressures of<br />

about 150 atm.<br />

Acidic or alkaline water electroly<strong>si</strong>s. For instance NaOH 15-<br />

20% solutions, by u<strong>si</strong>ng cathode of Fe and anode of graphite. At<br />

cathode are separated H2 and at anode are separated O2. In lab<br />

Small quantities of O2 can be obtained from thermal<br />

decompo<strong>si</strong>tion of some combinations:<br />

- oxides: 2HgO → O2 + 2Hg, 3MnO2 → O2 + Mn3O4 - peroxides: 2BaO2 → O2 + 2BaO<br />

-salts:KClO3→3 / 2O2<br />

+ KCl, 2KMnO4 → O2 + MnO2 + K2MnO4 Other way is from some redox reactions, such as:<br />

4MnO -<br />

4 + 12H + → 5O2 + 4Mn2+ + 6H2O
