What is the standard test for oxygen?

A common lab procedure taught in my chemistry classes in grammar school was to perform a "splint" test. To test for the presence of oxygen, you would light the end of a wooden splint and reduce the flame to the point that the end of the splint is simply glowing red but not burning. Insert the glowing end into the unknown gas's container and observe what happens. If the flame returns, the gas is oxygen. by Ronan Lavery
