It requires 22 trees to produce the amount of oxygen consumed by one person. (An acre of trees produces enough oxygen for 18 people). This data comes from the Northwest Territories Forest Management site.

Approximately 2 Moles per second

Not all trees produce the same amount of oxygen in the same amount of time.

'Evergreen' trees for example generally produce less oxygen per hour than their leafy cousins per time interval generally, however they do continue producing oxygen when their leafy cousins lose their leaves in the autumn, and to a point even well into the cold of winter in many areas.

The more green there is to a tree, in general, the more oxygen it will produce. The specific species of tree is important to consider, as well as the age, size and health of the tree.

A healthy 4 year old apple tree will produce more oxygen per day of summer sun than a dozen 4 year old trimmed 'bonsai' trees, simply because the 4 year old apple tree has a much greater volume of chlorophyll laden leaves (and large leaves) than the bonsai trees do.

The amount of oxygen produced is dependent on the amount of chlorophyll involved in the photosynthesis process. Although there is also the consideration of how much oxygen does the tree consume as well. (Plants do both, consuming oxygen and producing carbon dioxide, and consuming carbon dioxide and producing oxygen.

I presume you are asking about the NET oxygen production of the tree (which is the oxygen it produces minus the oxygen it uses.

In order to know this, however, we would have to account for how much of the time it is receiving enough sunlight to achieve photosynthesis and how much oxygen it is producing during that time, less the amount of oxygen it is using during the entire day (and night)

At night trees and other plants produce very little if any oxygen, but they continue cellular respiration (use of oxygen) at a lower rate.

Why cant you have one tree in the world?

Because trees produce oxygen which living things breathe in to live and if there was only one tree there would not be enough oxygen produced to keep everything alive. And eventually that tree would die and so would everything else.


How many people can an average size tree keep alive with the oxygen it produces?

it would take about 27 trees to produce enough oxygen for one person.


How much pollution does an average tree turn into oxygen per year?

One tree produces $625 in oxygen per year, enough for four people.


Cells produce ATP most efficiently in the presence of what molecule?

Oxygen. Cells can produce much more ATP from glucose in the presence of Oxygen (aerobic respiration) than without oxygen (anaerobic respiration) in a process called oxidative phosphorylation that occurs in the mitochondria of cells. In the presence of oxygen one glucose can be broken down to produce 36 ATP Without oxygen, only 4 ATP can be made


Can more than one type of apple grow on the same tree?

It is possible to graft tree branches onto another tree, which does make it possible for a single tree to produce more than one type of apple. But without grafting, one tree will only produce one type of apple.


In an electrolysis of water what produces more gas hydrogen or oxygen?

As each water molecule contains one atom of Oxygen and two atoms of Hydrogen you would expect electrolysis of water to produce twice as much Hydrogen as Oxygen.


What is the type of photosynthesis that does not produce oxygen?

The type of photosynthesis that does not produce oxygen is one that happens in some types of bacteria. The cyanobacteria is a good example.


During respiration oxygen com bust with what to produce water?

when we respire, glucose is burnt by oxygen...one by product is water. SO OXYGEN COMBUSTS WITH GLUCOSE TO PRODUCE WATER!


Volume of gas are not equal during electrolysis of water?

As one molecule of water is composed of two atoms of Hydrogen to one atom of oxygen electrolysis of water should produce twice as much Hydrogen as it does Oxygen.

How much Oxygen is produced by average plant per day?

The amount of oxygen is proportional to the light they receive. Most plants produce around one cubic centimeter of oxygen for every ten lumens of light absorbed.
