because it is a gas
Oxygen is typically measured in liters because it is a gas that is commonly administered in medical settings using oxygen therapy equipment that delivers a specific volume of oxygen per unit of time. Measuring it in liters helps ensure that patients receive the correct amount of oxygen to support their respiratory needs.
Oxygen cylinders come in various sizes including D, E, M, J, and K. The specific size is often measured in liters of oxygen capacity, with common sizes being 415, 682, and 1590 liters.
Magnesium oxide is a solid, not measured in litres.
Oxygen masks typically deliver a flow rate measured in liters per minute, with higher flow rates commonly used for patients needing higher concentrations of oxygen. At 15 liters per minute, the percentage of oxygen delivered by the mask will depend on the specific design and the individual's breathing pattern, but it can generally provide an oxygen concentration of around 60-90%.

To calculate the FiO2 (fraction of inspired oxygen) when mixing 15 liters of oxygen and 15 liters of air, you first determine the total volume of the mixture, which is 30 liters. Air is approximately 21% oxygen, so 15 liters of air contains about 3.15 liters of oxygen. Adding the 15 liters of pure oxygen gives a total of 18.15 liters of oxygen in 30 liters of gas. Therefore, the FiO2 is 18.15 liters of oxygen divided by 30 liters total, resulting in an FiO2 of approximately 60.5%.
