ah yes, the classic which gas is in which test tube experiment...
Oxygen accelerates the combustion of organic material. The wood splint will burn more brightly and quickly if placed in oxygen. If the splint is 'blown out' leaving only a glowing tip it will reignite when placed in oxygen.
The glow of the splint is extinguished, because helium can not support the combustion reaction with oxygen from the atmosphere that produces the glow.
the lighted splint would stop burning as Helium does not burn.
The reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and a burning splint is that the splint will extinguish. This is because CO2 is a non-flammable gas, which lacks oxygen to support combustion. When brought into contact with a burning splint, it displaces the oxygen and prevents the splint from continuing to burn.
Insert a lighted splint into the reaction test tube. If it extinguishes with a "pop" sound, Hydrogen is present. The duller the pop the purer the hydrogen is.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------P.S. that's a burning splint.
Each gas has a different way of testing if it's present, for example if you put a glowing splint in oxygen, the splint should re-light, however if you put the splint in carbon dioxide, it should go out. If you put the splint in hydrogen, you should hear a squeaky pop. To test for chlorine, use a damp blue or red pH paper and put it into the gas, the gas should turn white. Another test for carbon dioxide is lime water. if you put CO2 in lime water, the water should go cloudy.
.. then the flame or glow will distinguish by lack of oxygen.
It is extinguished
The burning splint is extinguished by the carbon dioxide given off from the calcium carbonate. CaCO3 --heat--> CaO + CO2 ==================================================
The glow of the splint is extinguished, because helium can not support the combustion reaction with oxygen from the atmosphere that produces the glow.
It will probabkly 'pop' , bany, explode. When hydrogen is mixed with oxygen , and there will be a trace in the tube, the lighted splint will ignite the hydrogen . It is the Classic test for hydrogen .
it goes out A glowing splint needs oxygen to basically keep glowing. It is a small fire in a way. When the glowing splint is added into an environment full of carbon dioxide, the splint goes out. Carbon dioxide in this case smothers the flame restricting the use of oxygen in combustion thus putting the flame out.

Nitrogen, A splint needs oxygen, Nitrogen has none. Doesnt affect Limewater as far as im aware, that's Carbon Dioxide. Hope this helps!
It explodes, making a "squeaky pop."
Cloudy white gas is all too vague. Say if it is CO2, the splint will quench itself as the 3 ingredients for fire are fuel (splint) ignition, and O2. If you get rid of O2, you lose ability to sustain a flame. If it is hydrogen gas for example, you will hear a pop, if the H2 is in low quantity.
