Oxygen
its obvious that the chemical reaction of the match sets the stick of wood on fire but if you put it in a test tube full of water it will reach its full potential of burning and simply go out the is written by Jesse page
The glowing splint will relight if you place it in a flask with oxygen. Scientists do this as a test for oxygen so if it relights, then that means the flask contains oxygen.
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.
To test for the presence of oxygen using a splint test, you first burn a splint until it smolders. Then, you blow out the flame and introduce the smoldering splint into the gas being tested. If oxygen is present, the splint will reignite due to the oxygen supporting combustion.
A test tube (or sample tube) has no errors.
It depends on what is inside the test tube. If the test tube is empty nothing will happen, if there is petrol in the test tube the petrol will ignite.

I'm not sure if it's an official test, but you could take a lit match and put it in the test tube (keeping the test tube right side up). If the test tube does contain carbon dioxide the match would be smothered since the carbon dioxide prevents oxygen from reaching the match.
If a test tube is filled with oxygen when you put a glowing splint into it, the splint will relight. (To make the splint glow you have to light it then blow it out and put it into the test tube immediately.) Hope this helps. XD XD
If you put a lit match in a test tube of oxygen it will burn with more energy.

When mercuric oxide is heated in a test tube, it will decompose to produce elemental mercury and oxygen gas. When the glowing splinter is brought near the oxygen gas, it will reignite due to the presence of oxygen, showing that oxygen supports combustion.
The heat from the lighted match caused the liquid in the test tube to heat up. If the liquid was flammable, it may have caught on fire. However, if the liquid was not flammable, it would have simply heated up and there may have been no other visible changes.
