March 31st, 2005 01:02 AM #29cool air DOESN'T mean more oxygen.
Remember, as you climb/drive to higher altitudes you get less oxygen but air gets colder.
The troposphere is the lowest layer and contains about 75% of the total mass of the atmosphere, but the thermosphere, which is one of the two outer layers contains less than 1% of the total mass of the earth's atmoshpere. The thermosphere's temperature could reach 441 degrees farenheit, which is very hot. If you believe that the amount of air decreases when the temperature decreases then this layer should have the largest percentage of mass of the atmosphere. But it doesn't. Air is closer to the lowest layer because of gravity.
So colder oxygen means more oxygen per unit of volume.
