Best Answer

The gas is Oxygen. It burns brighter because Oxygen supports combustion (aka helps other objects to burn).

What gas is it that we need to stay alive. it is also needed for burning.a burning splint will burn brightly in this gas?

Oxygen


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.


A lighted splint is put into a gas jar of helium . what would happen?

the lighted splint would stop burning as Helium does not burn.


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 happens when a lighted splint is put unto a glass jar of helium?

The glow of the splint is extinguished, because helium can not support the combustion reaction with oxygen from the atmosphere that produces the glow.


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.


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.


When ammonium carbonate decomposes would a glowing spling burn brighter in the presence of the gases that are evolved?

No. One of the gases produced by burning Ammonium Carbonate is Carbon Dioxide (CO2), so the splint would actually extinquish.


In the test tube which gas 'pops' when a burning splint is inserted?

Hydrogen explodes when you try to burn it. However, we usually only experiment with a small amount of hydrogen so the explosion is not very big. That "pop" that you hear when the burning splint is inserted in the hydrogen is actually a mini explosion. This mini explosion puts out the flame.


What will happen if a burning splint is put into the tube of hydrogen collected?

a glowing splint in hydrogen gas will make a popping sound. this is because hydrogen is very reactive and when it comes into contact with the oxygen in the air it reacts with it and that is what you hear in the popping sound.


Is cobalt flammability?

it's agressively active to simple air, if exposed, it will burn extremely brightly it's agressively active to simple air, if exposed, it will burn extremely brightly


What is the standard test for hydrogen?

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.
