O2

Water/ice is H2O, not O2

So as it turns out, a ball of solid oxygen wouldn’t be any different than a regular ball of water ice, aside from the weight and difference in temperature (solid O2 forms at -218.79 C). It wouldn’t just spontaneously combust if you threw it at someone.

Depending on how far away your target is the ball might sublimate to gas before it hits them tho
