Questions and Answers

What happens when a glowing splint is introduced to oxygen gas?

  • The splint extinguishes
  • The splint reignites (catches fire) (correct)
  • The splint remains unchanged
  • The splint produces a pop sound
  • What is the result of igniting hydrogen in air?

  • It produces a hissing sound
  • It extinguishes immediately
  • It forms a white solid
  • It produces a characteristic explosive 'pop' sound (correct)
  • What is the effect of carbon dioxide gas on a flame?

  • It produces a 'pop' sound
  • It has no effect on the flame
  • It extinguishes the flame (correct)

    Study Notes

    Combustion Reactions

    • Introducing a glowing splint to oxygen gas causes a rapid combustion reaction, resulting in a burst of flame.
    • Igniting hydrogen in air produces a loud explosion, releasing a large amount of energy.

    Effects of Gases on Combustion

    • Carbon dioxide gas extinguishes a flame, as it displaces oxygen, depriving the fuel of the necessary reactant for combustion.

    Chemical Reactions

    • The reaction between carbon dioxide and limewater produces calcium carbonate, a white precipitate.

    Combustion in Oxygen

    • Burning in pure oxygen results in a more vigorous reaction than in air, due to the higher concentration of oxygen available for combustion.
