The 'pop' test.

To test for hydrogen , have a sample in an upturned boiling/test tube, hydrogen is lighter that air, put a lighted splint/taper to the mouth and it will 'pop'

This is the classic hydrogen test.

How can you prove you have made hydrogen gas?

Take a sample of the gas in a test tube. Place a lighted splint/taper to it. If it 'pops' , then it is hydrogen. This is the classic hydrogen test. NB When testing for hydrogen keep the test/boiling tube upside down because hydrogen being a lighter gas than air will remain in the tube.

You can use a lit splint and hold it over where you think the hydrogen is, and if you hear a loud squeaky pop sound it will prove the existence of hydrogen there. You can also test of hydrogen using a Hydrogen Leak Detector.
