Teshing for hydrogen gas

Aim: to show that hydrogen gas is produced when a piece of metal reacts with acid
Equipment: A test tube, a boiling tube, bunsen burner, wooden splint, a bottle of acid a piece of metal, saftey glasses, a lab partner
Method:1: light you bunsen burner 2: add your sample of metal3: carefully invert the boiling tube above the test tube 4:hold tubes together for few minutes 5:when you think the tube is full get your lab partner to light wooden splint 6: carefuly, but quickly tilt the boiling tube of gas up wards and insert the wooden splint in to the mouth of the test tube
Results:made high pitch pop and the acid heated up and made dense smoke
Discusion:Well when we started and put the acid and metal together it started fizzing up because of the chemical reaction of metal and acid. And when we had captured all of the hydrogen in the top that the metal, acid reaction made, and then brought fire to it, it made a screeching sound and that cause of that was the Hydrogen reacting with the oxygen around it when we brought heat into the mix.
Concusion: it worked
