Question

A gas that extinguishes the glowing splinter?

Answer 1

A splinter is a thin, sharp piece of wood, glass, or other hard substance, which has been broken off from large pieces. A high level of carbon dioxide (${\mathrm{CO}}_2$) gas can be detected with a glowing splint. If we place a splint into carbon dioxide (${\mathrm{CO}}_2$ ) gas, the gas will extinguish.
