If the gas jar is standing with its opening to the top, then the escaping gas is Hydrogen.
If the gas jar is being held upside down ( opening to the bottom), then the escaping gas is carbon dioxide.
Yes, immediately and ask for advice.
It is crucial to turn off the gas tap immediately if your Bunsen burner goes out to prevent the accumulation of flammable gas, which could lead to a fire or explosion. Uncontrolled gas leaks can create a hazardous environment, posing risks to safety. Additionally, turning off the gas ensures that you can safely relight the burner without the danger of excessive gas buildup. Always prioritize safety in the lab by responding promptly to such incidents.

It rather depends on the situation. In everyday life we store gases in cylinders and tanks. In the lab we tend to use gas jars and gas syringes.
If the pilot light goes out on a gas stove, it typically does not cause gas to leak continuously. Most modern gas stoves are designed with safety features that prevent gas from flowing when the pilot light is extinguished. However, if there is a malfunction in the safety mechanisms, it could potentially lead to a gas leak. It's important to check the stove and ensure it is functioning properly and to address any concerns immediately.
When water is added to the gas jars in which sulphur was burnt, a chemical reaction occurs. The sulphur dioxide gas produced from burning sulphur reacts with the water to form sulphurous acid (H2SO3). This reaction results in the formation of a colorless solution with acidic properties.
Ovens are a great fire risk if the pilot light dies. Immediately turn off the gas if this happens.
Carbon dioxide gas can extinguish burning magnesium immediately. This is because the interaction between the magnesium and carbon dioxide produces magnesium oxide and carbon, cutting off the oxygen supply needed for the combustion reaction to continue.
contact 911, and evacuate immediately (depending on which gas you smell)
When you release a gas in a vacuum chamber, it immediately drops to the floor because of its density. _______________________________________________________ I expect that the gas will expand to fill the whole volume of the vacuum chamber.
