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 gases will extinguish a burning splint?

carbon dioxide


What effect does carbon dioxide has on burning splint?

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.


Will a burning splint go out in carbon dioxide gas?

Yes.

How do you express reaction between co2 and burning splint?

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.


What is the difference between a burning wooden splint and a glowing wooden splint?

A burning wooden splint has a visible flame at its burning end while a glowing wooden splint has glowing ember at its glowing end. Placing a glowing splint in a container with oxygen will cause it to burst into flames and become a burning splint.


Does Carbon dioxide relight a glowing splint?

Helium is a group 8 element, and therefore a noble gas. It has no free electrons to bond to oxygen, therefore it won't oxidise or combust. So no, it won't. As a side note, you may hear of stars "burning" helium, but this Ian burning, its nuclear fission :)


What makes a burning splint go out?

Removing from an oxygenated environment. for example placing in a test tube of carbon dioxide


What happens to the falme when th burning splint is put into the mouth of the test tube with the test tube of solid calcium carbonate in it and then heated?

The burning splint is extinguished by the carbon dioxide given off from the calcium carbonate. CaCO3 --heat--> CaO + CO2 ==================================================


What gas re lights a glowing splint?

What is a positive test for each of the following gases oxygen hydrogen carbon dioxide?

the positive test for oxygen is very simple. all that needs to happen is a vile must be filled 1/4 with hydrogen peroxide and a glowing splint must be inserted in t the vile . the splint will reignite after it is inserted int the vile.


How do you do the burning splint test?

Burn the splint to orange bright by shaking off the flame on it. Insert the splint into a test tube of gas. If it glows brightly, the gas is oxygen. If it pops, it is hydrogen.
