Most organisms, including humans and plants, as well as many bacteria need oxygen in order to gain energy by oxidation. The oxygen is reduced to water in the respiratory chain. In addition, many metabolites are degraded by oxygenation via certain enzymes (oxygenases). Chemistry: Oxygen is a colourless, odour- and tasteless gas with a density of p = 1.429 g/l under normal conditions. The boiling point lies at -183 °C, the thermal conductivity is 26.4 mW/mK. About 21% of our atmospheric gas is oxygen – accordingly, the partial pressure in normal air is 0.21 bar.
