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 is the gas that we need to stay alive and is also required for burning. A burning splint will burn brightly in oxygen because it supports combustion.


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

Oxygen gas will "pop" when a burning splint is inserted into a test tube, due to the rapid combustion reaction that occurs between the oxygen and the flammable material on the splint. This reaction creates a small explosion sound known as a "pop".


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.


What happens to a lit splint when it is in air?

A lit splint in air will continue to burn as long as there is enough oxygen to support combustion. The flame may flicker or become larger if more air is supplied, and it will eventually burn out once the available fuel is consumed.


Does copper sulphate out a lighted splint?

Copper sulfate does not extinguish a lighted splint. When a lighted splint is exposed to copper sulfate, the flame may change color due to the presence of copper ions, but the splint will continue to burn as long as there is sufficient oxygen available for the combustion reaction to occur.

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 do the burning splint test?

To do the burning splint test, you light a wooden splint and then blow it out to create an ember. You then place the splint near a gas sample without touching it. If the gas is flammable, it will ignite and produce a flame when the ember from the splint comes into contact with it.


How do you express reaction between co2 and burning splint?

You can't express that reaction because there isn't one: as CO2 is a well-known fire extinguishing agent, if you put a burning splint in CO2 the splint will go out. And the reason it will go out is CO2 displaces oxygen, which splints need to burn.


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

When a lighted splint is put into a glass jar of helium, the splint will immediately extinguish because helium is an inert gas that does not support combustion. The lack of oxygen in the helium prevents the splint from continuing to burn.


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.


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 if we put coal on ice and burn the coal?

it will burn it would probably burn at first and melt the ice and water does not encourage burning so the coal stops burning

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

When ammonium carbonate decomposes, it releases gases like ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. If a glowing splint is introduced into these gases, the presence of ammonia may enhance the combustion reaction, causing the splint to burn brighter momentarily due to the oxygen in the ammonia supporting combustion. However, this effect may be brief as the concentration of ammonia decreases and the combustion reverts back to its normal intensity.
