The discovery of oxygen

C6H12O6 is the chemical formula for Glucose (I think, I can't totally remember), and O2 is oxygen. It works as enzymes in our digestive systems breaks down the glucose and it reacts with the oxygen to create C02, H2O and Energy, which is used in respiration

H\n |    \nC=O:  (You need 2 lone pairs on Oxygen)\n |   \nH\n\nIt doesnt get much better than that :)

Oxygen is produced usually as a gas or liquid from air by a method called cryogenic distillation. \n\nIt basically consists of cooling the air (which costs nothing as raw material) until it liquefies, and then distilling the different components (nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc) as you would distill any other mixture.

Oxygen Facts\nAtomic Number  8\nSymbol  O\nAtomic Weight  15.9994 \nDiscovery  Joseph Priestley; Scheele 1774. \nElectron Configuration  [He]2s22p4 \nWord Origin  Greek: oxys: sharp or acid and Greek: genes: born, former... 'acid former'. \nIsotopes  Nine isotopes of oxygen are known. Natural oxygen is a mixture of three isotopes. \nProperties  Oxygen gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. The liquid and solid forms are a pale blue color and are strongly paramagnetic. Oxygen supports combustion, combines with most elements, and is a component of hundreds of thousands of organic compounds. Ozone (O3), a highly active compound with a name derived from the Greek word for 'I smell', is formed by the action of an electrical discharge or ultraviolet light on oxygen. \nUses  Oxygen was the atomic weight standard of comparison for the other elements until 1961 when the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry adopted carbon 12 as the new basis. It is the third most abundant element found in the sun and the earth, and it plays a part in the carbon-nitrogen cycle. Excited oxygen yields the bright red and yellow-green colors of the Aurora. Oxygen enrichment of steel blast furnaces accounts for the greatest use of the gas. Large quantities are used in making synthesis gas for ammonia, methanol, and ethylene oxide. It is also used as a bleach, for oxidizing oils, for oxy-acetylene welding, and for determining carbon content of steel and organic compounds. Plants and animals require oxygen for respiration. Hospitals frequently prescribe oxygen for patients. Approximately two thirds of the human body and nine tenths of the mass of water is oxygen. \n\nOxygen can exist in a number of physical forms. Most commonly it is found as a diatomic O-O gas and is called molecular oxygen (O2) or dioxygen. The gas exists as a triplet state but the singlet oxygen can also be formed and is more reactive. This gas can be liquefied at low temperatures to produce a blue liquid oxygen (LOX) and cooled further produces a blue solid. After electrical discharge or photolysis Oxygen may also form the triatomic ozone (O3) and under very extreme conditions atomic oxygen (O•) is produced.

Oxygen was first discovered by Michał Sędziwój, a Polish alchemist and philosopher in the late 16th century. Sędziwój assumed the existence of oxygen by warming nitre (saltpeter). He thought of the gas given off as "the elixir of life".\nOxygen was again discovered by the Swedish pharmacist Carl Wilhelm Scheele sometime before 1773, but the discovery was not published until after the independent discovery by Joseph Priestley on August 1, 1774, who called the gas dephlogisticated air (see phlogiston theory). Priestley published his discoveries in 1775 and Scheele in 1777; consequently Priestley is usually given the credit. It was named by Antoine Laurent Lavoisier after Priestley's publication in 1775.

Oxygen Transport\nIn the lungs, oxygen diffuses from alveolar air into the blood because the venous blood has a lower partial pressure. The oxygen dissolves in the blood. Only a small amount is carried as a physical solution (0.31 ml per 100 ml). The remainder of the oxygen is carried in chemical combination with the hemoglobin in red blood cells (erthrocytes).\n\nfrom http://www.elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembook/260acidbasebal.html\n\n\nNormal analysis results\nNormal blood gas values are as follows:\n partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2): 75-100 mm Hg \n\n\nfrom http://www.healthatoz.com/healthatoz/Atoz/ency/blood_gas_analysis.jsp
