In commerce thesecylinders contain 40, 75, and 100 gallons respectively, and arepainted red to differentiate them from the nitrous oxid cylinders,which are painted black. Pure oxygen is readily obtained by decomposing oxone, asolid, fused sodium dioxid. Oxone is neither combustible norexplosive; it may be stored in air-tight tin cans for any lengthof time, or may be transported without danger, and is alwaysready for use. When oxone is brought in contact with water. Figure Oxone Generator. Closed. it instantaneously produces oxygen. Approximately one pound(453 Gm.) furnishes two cubic feet (60 liters) of pure oxygen,which corresponds to about 320 times its own weight. A verysimple apparatus, the oxone generator, made by the Rossler &Hasslacher Company, of New York, is readily available forsuch purposes. One charge of the apparatus furnishes aboutfourteen to fifteen gallons of pure oxygen within a few momentstime. So far as known, it is the simplest method of obtainingpure oxygen for medicinal purposes and for the laboratory. Thevalue of an oxone generator is readily appreciated by those whoutilize pure oxygen in their practice. ANTISEPTICS. 115 Oxygen is a colorless, inodorous gas; 1 liter weighs gramsat 32° F.
