Liquid Oxygen to Gas Conversion Calculator
Calculation for Volume of Gas from Liquid Oxygen
We can assume that 1 liter (1,000 cm³) of liquid oxygen will expand into a much larger volume of gaseous oxygen at room temperature and atmospheric pressure.
Conversion Table
| Liquid Oxygen (L) | Mass of Liquid Oxygen (kg) | Volume of Gaseous Oxygen (m³) | Volume of Gaseous Oxygen (L) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.141 | 0.863 | 863 |
| 5 | 5.705 | 4.315 | 4,315 |
| 10 | 11.41 | 8.63 | 8,630 |
| 20 | 22.82 | 17.26 | 17,260 |
| 50 | 57.05 | 43.15 | 43,150 |
| 100 | 114.1 | 86.3 | 86,300 |
Key Notes:
- Liquid Oxygen Density: 1.141 kg/L.
- Expansion Ratio: Liquid oxygen expands roughly 860 times when converted to gas at standard temperature and pressure.
- Mass Calculation: Multiply liquid volume (in liters) by the density to get the mass in kilograms.
- Volume of Gaseous Oxygen: Use the expansion ratio to calculate the volume of gaseous oxygen.
