You put the gas in a tube and then put a lit wooden stick in it, if it pops it's hydrogen

How would you test to see if a gas is hydrogen?

it will burn with a pop noise


How do you test for evolution of hydrogen gas?

You can test for the evolution of hydrogen gas by collecting a gas sample from the reaction using a gas syringe or inverted test tube. You can then test this gas by lighting a flame at the mouth of the container to see if it ignites with a 'squeaky pop' sound characteristic of hydrogen gas. Alternatively, you can use a glowing splint to see if it reignites in the presence of hydrogen gas.


If gas is hydrogen what would you see?

Nothig to see ! Hydrogen is colorlees, odorless, with no taste. Also the flame is not very visible.


How you would test for the gas and state what you would see in a positive test?

To test for a specific gas, you would typically use a method tailored to that gas. For example, to test for hydrogen, you would bring a lit splint close to the gas; a positive test would produce a characteristic 'pop' sound. For oxygen, you would use a glowing splint; a positive test would cause the splint to reignite. For carbon dioxide, you could bubble the gas through limewater; a positive test would turn the limewater cloudy.


How do you check that it's a hydrogen gas?

To check if a gas is hydrogen, you can perform the "squeaky pop" test. Collect a small sample of the gas in a test tube and ignite it with a flame; if it produces a squeaky pop sound, it is likely hydrogen gas. Additionally, you can use a flame test in a controlled laboratory setting to see if the gas burns with a pale blue flame, characteristic of hydrogen.


What happens to the level of water in a test-tube as hydrogen is produced?

Ya... In a test tube add some aluminum foils and some amount of NaOH... Introduce the flame near mouth of the test tube... Then see the magic...


How do you test hydrogen gas?

You would put your thumb over the test tube it keep it contained then you would get a match or source of fire remove your thumb and put it over the test tube and if it popped or made a flame for a quick second it meant it was hydrogen always wear goggles when you do this experiment.


How do you do you test for hydrogen?

Put magnesium and hydrochloric acid in a test tube.When you see fizzing in the test tube this means there is a chemical reaction!Light a splint and hold it in the test tube.If hydrogen is there the splint will make a squeaky pop! and if you put the gas in lime water it will turn milky white


Can anyone suggest a test for hydrogen gas other than burning splint?

Fill a balloon with the gas and see if it is lighter than air (only Helium and Hydrogen will make a balloon float...) Calculate the density of the gas (mass/volume)


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.


What is the squeaky pop test?

1.Put the substances you want to test for hydrogen in a test tube. 2.Put your finger over the top of the test tube 3.When you feel the gas pushing against your finger light a match or splint. 4.Remove your finger and immediately and put the lit match above the test tube. 5.If you here a Squeaky pop it mean the gas generated is Hydrogen! Make sure you wear safety goggles!


If the gas is hydrogen what would you see?

Hydrogen gas is odorless, colorless, and has no taste. A hydrogen flame is nearly invisible because it emits light in the (invisible) ultraviolet spectrum.
