What happens if you put a burning splint into nitrogen?
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.
Describe and explain what happens to the piece of wooden splint when it is placed in the different parts of the Bunsen flame?
It burns
What happened whe the glowing splint was inserted in then test tube containing hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide?
the glowing splint would ignite.
What is carbon dioxides effect on burning splint?
It will extinguish the flame, as it replaces the oxygen around the splint, which is an essential component of combustion. The splint may relight if placed in an oxygen rich environment.
What happens to a glowing splint when it is lowered into a jar full of oxygen?
It rekindles (flames up) the glowing splint..
What happens when you put a lighted splint in nitrogen?
.. then the flame or glow will distinguish by lack of oxygen.

Would a glowing splint placed into carbon dioxide gas glow more brightly or reignite?
Neither, because it dies out. See the answer to the question "what happens to a glowing splint....."
What happens to a wooden splint in gas cylinder filled with carbon dioxide?
If the wooden splint happened to be on fire when it was placed into the cylinder filled with carbon dioxide, the fire will go out. Other than that, nothing happens to the wooden splint. It will just sit there quietly, doing nothing.

How do you identify oxygen gas?
By chemical analysis; also a candle burn in oxygen (or in a gas containing oxygen) but not in nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide.
What would happen if you put a glowing splint in nitrogen?
It is extinguished
What will a burning splint do in nitrogen?
It will go out. Nitrogen, which makes up 79% of the Earth's atmosphere, does not support combustion.
What happens to a lit splint when it is in air?
It doesn't do anything.
What happened whe the glowing splint was inserted in then test tube containing hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide?
the glowing splint would ignite.
What do you use to test a gas?
hydrogen: place a lighted splint into the container containing hydrogen, the result is a squeaky pop.oxygen: place a glowing splint (a blowout splint) into the container containing oxygen, the result is the splint relighting.carbon dioxide: bubble the gas through lime-water, the result is the lime-water turning milky/cloudy.ammonia: place DAMP litmus paper over the container containing ammonia, the result is the litmus paper turning blue.
Burning splint test for hydrogen gas?
hydrogen gas is H2 When H2 reacts with oxygen and fire (energy) It is combustion H2+ 02= 2(H20) Which is water. In that state it is water vapor. A popping noise is also made. That is water vapor racing out. The burning splint tests, basically, is when an individual lights a splint. On lighting this splint, it should be placed near a bottle containing hydrogen gas [ H2 ]. On carrying out this action, the glowing splint may increase in size, regarding the size of the flame, that is. The Hydrogen gas, on the other hand, will make a popping sound. The intensity of the 'pop' will depend on the amount of Hydrogen gas collected in the bottle. Take care to ensure that no Hydrogen gas escapes, or is released from the bottle, until the splint is placed, at least 2 inches away from the opening of the bottle.
