    Why don't we make things out of solid oxygen? We could use solid oxygen to make cars, houses, bicycles, furniture, etc. There's such an abundance of it in our atmosphere it would be good for the environment, it doesn't require much processing or chemicals and we wouldn't have to mine it out of the ground.
    I might start a kickstarter for this, I think there are plenty of people who would love to get an eco-friendly bed constructed from planks of solid oxygen.

    • @jgdude7460
      @jgdude7460 6 років тому +20

      That would not work, as a refrigerator does not have an easy way to let off heat. So if too much heat builds up in there, it will not be very effective. This is why no one puts, for instance, their computers, inside of refrigerators, because they do not handle heat very well. And a way you can see that in everyday life is if you touch somewhere around the bottom of the door, or certain places where it tends to let off heat, you'll see those places will be quite warm. While it may not be possible to do that with a regular refrigerator, there may be a system in which you could build a refrigerator like object that has an effective heat-sink.

    Why does putting things under vacuum cause them to freeze? I've always thought that the opposite was true. If you lower the pressure on water for example, it begins to boil at lower and lower temperatures. If you compress a gas enough, it turns into a liquid. What is the explanation for what we see in this video?

    • @richhagenchicago
      @richhagenchicago 8 років тому +9

      When the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure of the atmosphere it is exposed to it will boil. Dropping the pressure of the liquid oxygen lowers the effective boiling temperature of the liquid and ultimately causes it to boil. Most liquids have a heat of vaporization, energy that must be put into the material to turn it from a liquid to a gas, and this energy is taken from the liquid, cooling it further. Another way of looking at it is that temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of molecules of the material. The molecules with higher kinetic energy end up in the gas, leaving an average kinetic energy in the liquid that is much lower than it was to start, thus lowering its temperature.

    • @matocan1
      @matocan1 8 років тому +1

      Evaporation is an endothermic phase change, so as the oxygen/ nitrogen moves to the gas phase, the remaining liquid decreases in temperature until it reaches its freezing point.

    • @aerobyrdable
      @aerobyrdable 8 років тому

      Here's *some* explanation. When you put water at room temperature into a vacuum, it will begin to boil. As it does so, the very action of boiling decreases the temperature. Think of it as boiling taking energy to accomplish, and thus reducing the energy inside the water. Once the temperature is lowered sufficiently, the water will freeze. There's some youtube videos of this being done, but I'd recommend just looking at a phase diagram of water.

      I think the key is that boiling =/= evaporation.
      Boiling means you're adding heat, evaporation is the surface particles naturally escaping.
      Also the gas being compressed raises the temperature. (Some gas law or other)

      That looks surprisingly like a standard automotive air conditioning system evacuation pump. They use them to suck all the air out of your air conditioner so it won't contaminate the coolant. You can get them for cheap at Harbor Freight. Applied Science channel has the same Harbor Freight model we use. For the price you can't beat it, and you don't worry so much if it sucks in fluid or overheats. If you break it, it's not going to cost a lot to replace.

    You should purify air before you freeze oxygen. I see you have plenty of liquid nitrogen around, so you can make a cold trap for removing CO2 and water vapor. Also, I'm surprised you don't have an oxygen tank.
    I can't be sure by how much, but LOX dissolves solid CO2 just like liquid nitrogen does.They're both nonpolar. As a matter of fact, such solution would have a depressed melting point than pure LOX because of colligative properties. So you should've gotten an even lower temperature when it solidified. :)
    If you use LOX only, you should get a solid at higher temperature, just try to put something sharp inside as a source of nucleation.
    Thanks for making this video.

      HF sells complete garbage, it will never hit a hard vacuum what it does pull will be so janky and slow as to be ineffective for most uses, and then it dies prematurely. You can also tell its garbage because the gauge is labeled in inches mercury. Mercury isn't a unit of pressure,.pascals are. Mercury based measurements are considered completely antiquated in the professional science realm as it is only a relative reading and applicable locally because the weight of merc varies based both on temp. and location, it also isn't useful for low pressures due to its own vapor pressure.

      @totallycarbon2106 8 років тому +1

      All you need is oxygen dissolved in the fluid in your mitochondria so it can form water with hydrogen ions and electrons from the electron transport chain and keep your electron transport chain working. The oxygen in your body isn't in liquid or gaseous forms, it is either molecules of oxygen bound to haemoglobin or its molecules of oxygen floating around in your cytoplasm and ultimately the matrix of your mitochondria. We breath it as a gas mixed in with air so it can diffuse across the alveolar membranes and into our blood, liquid oxygen wouldn't be able to cross that membrane and would freeze and kill the tissue in your lungs.
      So yes, respiration needs oxygen to carry electrons, and its irrelevant how you supply that oxygen, but no there is no way to get liquid oxygen to cross cell membranes without the contact with something so cold instantly freezing the cell itself.

    • @hackettbr1
      @hackettbr1 6 років тому

      honestly I would say it depends, if you were able to compress it and turn it into a gas then yes, though if it was just liquid oxygen it would have to be an extremophile. (I think that's what they are called) Bacteria that live is the most extreme of environments

      LOX would boil off violetly as usual, and motor touching it would solidify.
      Mixture of LOX and such combustibles is usually a very explosive substance. For example if LOX saturates asphalt and a tool (hammer, wrench, ...) falls on it, there's a reasonably big chance of a detonation occuring. LOX, asphalt and tools are common things in airforce and rocketry, so people have to be very careful.

They would take off like Catherine wheels. He also demonstrated that by absorbing liquid oxygen into a cigarette you could smoke the entire thing with one 2 second drag.
