AI Generated Solution

To solve the question of why it is easier to liquefy oxygen than hydrogen, we need to understand the concepts of critical temperature and inversion temperature. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Critical Temperature**: - The critical temperature is the temperature above which a substance cannot exist in the liquid state, regardless of the pressure applied. For a gas to be liquefied, it must be cooled below its critical temperature. 2. **Understanding Inversion Temperature**: ...
