How long will oxygen last in a 3x3 meter room for one person?

Let's assume that the windows and doors are tightly closed.

  • How can I calculate at what moment I will feel a lack of oxygen and my well-being will worsen?
  • Can one person completely consume all the air before dying?
  • How will the pressure in the room change then?

For example, movies show that astronauts have "5 minutes of oxygen left". How did they calculate it?
