Question

1. observe and listen to the results of the splint test for gas 2. identify the product formed in test tube 2. what is a splint test? gas 2 is steam (h₂o) gas 2 is carbon dioxide gas 2 is hydrogen gas 2 is oxygen

Explanation:

A splint test is a common laboratory test in chemistry to identify gases. Hydrogen gas burns with a 'pop' sound when a lighted splint is introduced. Oxygen gas relights a glowing splint. Carbon - dioxide gas extinguishes a burning splint. Steam does not have a characteristic reaction with a splint in the same way as these gases for identification purposes.

Answer:

There is not enough information in the question to determine the answer among the options. But if we consider the characteristic reactions of these gases with a splint:

• If the gas burns with a 'pop' sound, Gas 2 is hydrogen.
• If the gas relights a glowing splint, Gas 2 is oxygen.
• If the gas extinguishes a burning splint, Gas 2 is carbon dioxide.
• Steam does not have a typical splint - related identification reaction like the others. Without further details about the splint test results, we cannot definitively choose an option from the given ones.
