Liquid oxygen has an expansion ratio of 1: 861 at 20 ° C ( 68 ° F ); and because of this, it is used in some commercial and military aircraft as a source of breathing oxygen.

Liquid oxygen is also a very powerful oxidizing agent: organic materials will burn rapidly and energetically in liquid oxygen.

Liquid nitrogen has a lower boiling point at − 196 ° C ( 77 K ) than oxygen's − 183 ° C ( 90 K ), and vessels containing liquid nitrogen can condense oxygen from air: when most of the nitrogen has evaporated from such a vessel there is a risk that liquid oxygen remaining can react violently with organic material.

Liquid oxygen is obtained from the oxygen found naturally in air by fractional distillation in a cryogenic air separation plant.

Liquid oxygen is a common liquid oxidizer propellant for spacecraft rocket applications, usually in combination with liquid hydrogen or kerosene.

Liquid oxygen was also used in some early ICBMs, although more modern ICBMs do not use liquid oxygen because its cryogenic properties and need for regular replenishment to replace boiloff make it harder to maintain and launch quickly.

In the construction industry a specialised proprietary adhesive known as Liquid Nails ( or liquid nails as the generic ), is used.

Liquid chromatography ( LC ) is a separation technique in which the mobile phase is a liquid.

Liquid nitrogen is the most commonly used element in cryogenics and is legally purchasable around the world.

Liquid helium is also commonly used and allows for the lowest attainable temperatures to be reached.

Liquid mal-distribution is more frequently the problem than vapor.

Liquid in the Cassie – Baxter state is more mobile than in the Wenzel state.

Liquid and gaseous biofuels, such as ethanol and biodiesel ( a form of diesel fuel that is produced from crops that yield triglycerides such as soybean oil ), can also be used.

Liquid water is densest, essentially 1. 00 g / cm³, at 4 ° C and becomes less dense as the water molecules begin to form the hexagonal crystals of ice as the freezing point is reached.

* 1973 – Catastrophic BLEVE ( Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion ) in Kingman, Arizona, following a fire that broke out as propane is being transferred from a railroad car to a storage tank, kills 11 firefighters.

The Liquid Crystal Display is intrinsically a “ passive ” device, it is a simple light valve.

Liquid crystal in fluid form is used to detect electrically generated hot spots for failure analysis in the semiconductor industry.

Jonathan Smeeton is a British lighting designer who has also worked under the name of Liquid Len.

Liquid malt extract is a thick syrup.

Liquid nitrogen, a fluid resembling water in appearance, but with 80. 8 % of the density ( the density of liquid nitrogen at its boiling point is 0. 808 g / mL ), is a common cryogen.

Liquid nitrogen is useful in various low-temperature applications, being nonreactive at normal temperatures ( unlike oxygen ), and boiling at.

Between 2002 and 2004, Winkleman began her first daily TV role when she hosted the BBC Three Entertainment update show Liquid News, taking over from Christopher Price on the now defunct BBC Choice.

Prior to his current role at Liquid Robotics, he was the President and COO of Sun Microsystems Federal ( a Sun Microsystems subsidiary focusing on business with government organizations ).

Liquid hydrocarbon fuels are the most commonly used forms of energy storage for use in transportation, but because the byproducts of the reaction that utilizes these liquid fuels ' energy ( combustion ) produce greenhouse gases other energy carriers like hydrogen can be used to avoid production of greenhouse gases.

In his instructional video " Liquid Drum Theater ", Portnoy said that his first choice for the guitar was Dimebag Darrell, but he was unable to join because of conflicting schedules.

Both Mike and John confirmed on the 5 Years in a Livetime DVD commentary, that Rudess was asked to join Dream Theater largely because of the success of Liquid Tension Experiment, and the chemistry of the three working together.

Liquid helium is used as a coolant for most superconductive windings, even those with critical temperatures far above its boiling point of 4. 2 K. This is because the lower the temperature, the better superconductive windings work — the higher the currents and magnetic fields they can stand without returning to their nonsuperconductive state.

By the end of the 1990s, Liquid crystal display ( LCD ) panels were increasingly favored among aircraft manufacturers because of their efficiency, reliability and legibility.

Passive matrix addressed displays such as ferroelectric Liquid crystal display do not need the switch-component of an active matrix display because it has a built-in bistability.

Liquid Snake returns as he communicates via Ocelot because his right hand, sliced by Gray Fox in the previous game, has been replaced with the right hand of Liquid.

When asked about his favorite Cannibal Corpse song, Webster answered: " I don't know, it would be hard to choose one that's the " best ", but one of my favorites is " From Skin to Liquid ", mainly because it was so different for us.

Liquid water is considered important because carbon compounds dissolved in water form the basis of all earthly life, so watery planets are good candidates to support similar carbon-based biochemistries.

Liquid sodium presents safety problems because it ignites spontaneously on contact with air and can cause explosions on contact with water.
