Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon, thus the hydrogens alpha to ethers are more acidic than in simple hydrocarbons.

Oxygen is a common oxidizing agent, but not the only one.

Oxygen balance is an expression that is used to indicate the degree to which an explosive can be oxidized.

Oxygen gas is fed through the cathode, where it reacts with electrons to create oxygen ions.

Oxygen is not shown in this model, but, for each of the iron atoms, it binds to the iron ( red sphere ) in the flat heme.

Oxygen is a common constituent of the moon's crust, and is probably abundant in most other bodies in the Solar System.

Oxygen is used to remove an amine group from a molecule, resulting in the corresponding aldehyde and ammonia.

Oxygen ( ) is a chemical element with symbol O and atomic number 8.

Oxygen is a member of the chalcogen group on the periodic table and is a highly reactive nonmetallic element that readily forms compounds ( notably oxides ) with almost all other elements.

Oxygen is a strong oxidizing agent and has the second-highest electronegativity of all reactive elements, second only to fluorine.

Oxygen is toxic to obligately anaerobic organisms, which were the dominant form of early life on Earth until began to accumulate in the atmosphere.

Oxygen was independently discovered by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, in Uppsala, in 1773 or earlier, and Joseph Priestley in Wiltshire, in 1774, but Priestley is often given priority because his work was published first.

Oxygen is produced industrially by fractional distillation of liquefied air, use of zeolites with pressure-cycling to concentrate oxygen from air, electrolysis of water and other means.

Oxygen is a waste product of light-dependent reactions, but the majority of organisms on Earth use oxygen for cellular respiration, including photosynthetic organisms.

Neighbours, which is celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2005, was aired on the US channel Oxygen in March 2004, however it attracted few viewers, perhaps in part because it was scheduled opposite well-established and highly popular US soap operas such as All My Children and The Young and The Restless, and due to low ratings it was cancelled shortly afterwards.

* April 5 – Oxygen is liquefied for the very first time.

Oxygen is a useful standard, as, unlike hydrogen, it forms compounds with most other elements, especially metals.

Oxygen is shown in red, silicon in pink, and magnesium / iron in blue.

Oxygen ( bound to hemoglobin in red blood cells ) is the most critical nutrient carried by the blood.

Oxygen therapy is often necessary in severe respiratory disease such as pulmonary fibrosis.

Oxygen is required by all aerobically respiring plants and animals and it is replenished in daylight by photosynthesizing plants and algae. As they cannot photosynthesis, the method of plants produces energy, and oxygen.

Oxygen deprivation in the brain, also known as hypoxia, causes neuronal extracellular sodium and calcium to decrease and intracellular calcium to increase, which harms neuron communication.

Also, he co-authored with Carl Djerassi a play called " Oxygen " about the discovery of oxygen, but also about what it means to be a scientist and the importance of process of discovery in science.

Oxygen and carbon dioxide are also essential components of blood chemistry, where significant changes in their concentrations may be a sign of illness or injury.

MIT has also contributed significant research in this field, notably Things That Think consortium ( directed by Hiroshi Ishii, Joseph A. Paradiso and Rosalind Picard ) at the Media Lab and the CSAIL effort known as Project Oxygen.

Oxygen also behaves similarly, e. g. in peroxides such as H < sub > 2 </ sub > O < sub > 2 </ sub >.

Oxygen and water are also essential for human survival, but are generally not considered " food " when consumed in isolation.

He also produced the song " Greenstone " from Emma Paki's debut album " Oxygen Of Love ".

In his later years he also held directorships at the Phoenix Assurance Company, Tube Investments Ltd, the State Building Society ( 1960 – 1964 ) and was the vice-chairman of the British Oxygen Company ( 1964 – 1966 ).

There have also been modifications to the Fick method where respiratory oxygen content is measured as part of a closed system and the consumed Oxygen calculated using an assumed oxygen consumption index which is then used to calculate Q.

Oxygen levels also had significant effects on ocean chemistry ; continental weathering rates increased and provided sulfates and nitrates as nutrients.

Oxygen rebreathers are also sometimes used when decompressing from a deep open-circuit dive, as breathing pure oxygen makes the nitrogen diffuse out of the blood more rapidly.

The approach at the centers is also more clinical in nature, as they provide true supervision with a staff that is equipped and trained to administer Oxygen or Naloxone in the case of a heroin or other opioid overdose.

Engineering companies like Richardson Cruddas, Bombay Oxygen, Chicago Pneumatic, ACC, Agfa & Gabriel were also around.

Oxygen gas or ambient air can also be injected to promote growth of aerobic bacteria which accelerate natural attenuation of organic contaminants.

# Oxygen carrying blood substitutes also would become an alternative for those patients that refuse blood transfusions for religious or cultural reasons, such as Jehovah's Witnesses.

Neveen, who starred in this show, was also on the second season of Oxygen Network's hit series The Bad Girls Club 2.

Oxygen breathing on the surface for 6 hours post treatment and intravenous fluids are also administered following both treatment tables.

Oxygen therapy can also be used as part of a strategy for delivering drugs to a patient, with the usual example of this being through a nebulizer mask, which delivers nebulizable drugs such as salbutamol or epinephrine into the airways by creating a vapor-mist from the liquid form of the drug.

Oxygen is also cycled between the biosphere and lithosphere.

Girls Behaving Badly is an American reality comedy television show on the Oxygen cable channel, and is also syndicated to television stations across the United States and Canada by Sony Pictures Television.

The album saw the band take on much more of a commercially influenced sound, and also the appearance of Moog synthesizers, while being lyrically focused on a comedic approach, as with " Seven Days in the Sun ", but also dark emotions, such as those shown on " Turn ", " Oxygen ", and " Satellite News ".

The Elektron system has required significant maintenance work, having failed several times and requiring the crew to use the Solid Fuel Oxygen Generator canisters ( also called " Oxygen Candles ", which were the cause of a fire on Mir ) when it has been broken for extended amounts of time.
