Overview

Engineering reference data for Oxygen in gases and compressed air.

Key Formulas

Ideal Gas Law

PV=nRTPV = nRT

Pressure × Volume = moles × gas constant × temperature.

Boyle's Law

P1V1=P2V2P_1 V_1 = P_2 V_2

At constant temperature.

Charles's Law

V1T1=V2T2\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}

At constant pressure.

Variables

Symbol Description Unit
PP Pressure Pa
VV Volume
TT Temperature K
RR Gas constant 8.314 J/(mol·K)

Specific Heat Data

Notes

The specific heat values, including isobaric specific heat (CpC_p) and isochoric specific heat (CvC_v), vary with temperature. At high temperatures above 1500 K, dissociation of oxygen gas becomes appreciable, making pressure a significant variable in specific heat calculations. The tabulated values apply to undissociated states.
