Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on how this is done. If you raise the pressure, the nitrogen will disappear (liquify) and all that will be left will be the 21 % oxygen and the 1% argon.

The process is very complicated because the boiling point of nitrogen keeps on changing. The boiling point is unstable.
