When ammonium carbonate decomposes what would happen to a glowing splint in the presence of the gases that are evoled?

When ammonium carbonate decomposes, ammonia gas is released. If a glowing splint is introduced to the ammonia gas, the splint would extinguish due to the lack of oxygen in the gas. Ammonia gas does not support combustion.


What is the standard test for oxygen?

A common lab procedure taught in my chemistry classes in grammar school was to perform a "splint" test. To test for the presence of oxygen, you would light the end of a wooden splint and reduce the flame to the point that the end of the splint is simply glowing red but not burning. Insert the glowing end into the unknown gas's container and observe what happens. If the flame returns, the gas is oxygen. by Ronan Lavery


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.


What will happen if you get liquid nitrogen on skin?

If you drank liquid nitrogen, your tongue, mouth, throat, face, and digestive track, and possibly also your hand, would be severely frostbitten. This is more than likely result in a horrifically painful death.


What would happen if the bacteria that cause denitrification were removed from the nitrogen cycle?

If the bacteria that cause denitrification were removed from the nitrogen cycle, there would be a buildup of nitrogen compounds such as nitrate and nitrite in the soil and water. This could lead to eutrophication in aquatic ecosystems, causing excessive algae growth and oxygen depletion. Additionally, plants may struggle to access nitrogen in a form they can use, impacting their growth and overall ecosystem productivity.

What test would you use to distinguish between nitrogen an oxygen?

You can test for oxygen by placing a glowing splint (not lit but not out) into the test tube where you think oxygen is present. If the splint relights, that means that it is oxygen. If this doesn't happen, then in your case it will be nitrogen.


What happens to a glowing splint when it is lowered into a jar full of oxygen?

It rekindles (flames up) the glowing splint..

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....."


How would you identify oxygen?

Oxygen would re-light a glowing splint


If you collected the gas produced by the photosynthesizing leaves how would you check if it contained oxygen?

The test for oxygen is to insert a glowing splint into a test tube and see if it glows brighter or re-ignites.


What happened whe the glowing splint was inserted in then test tube containing hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide?

When a glowing splint is inserted into a test tube containing hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide, the glowing splint will reignite, displaying the catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The manganese dioxide acts as a catalyst in this reaction, speeding up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.


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.


Which observation would provide indirect evidence that the bubbles are not oxygen?

If the bubbles do not relight a glowing splint, it would suggest they are not oxygen. Oxygen is a gas that supports combustion, so if the bubbles do not allow the splint to reignite, it indicates they are not oxygen.


How would you test a gas to prove it was oxygen?

One way to test if a gas is oxygen is by using a glowing splint test. A glowing splint placed in a test tube of the gas will reignite if the gas is oxygen. Another method is to use a colorimetric test strip specifically designed to detect oxygen, which will change color in the presence of oxygen gas.

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.
