If i’m not mistaken, that much pressure would actually increase the temperature, something about the same amount of energy being more densely packed. Someone who actually knows physics can certainly explain it better
Yes. pV=nRT. If you keep n constant (same number of particles), drop the volume (V) and crank the pressure (p) proportionally, then the only variable left is T, which would have to rise. This is called adiabatic compression. What’s being described is an engine piston the size of the atmosphere and a compression ratio thousands of times higher than what we can normally make.
If you did pack all that oxygen that right, wouldn’t the temperature also drop to about a similar level?

This guy chemistries. Also, oh the memories of yester year suffering two semesters only to remember none of it 🥲
