Simple Appliances for Burning Gases
Product Code : SCL-CL-11684
Simple Appliances for Burning Gases (SKU SCL-CL-11684) is a small glass set for producing a gas in a test tube and burning it at a narrow jet. It consists of an 18 mm test tube, 150 mm long, a 6 mm glass tube and a rubber stopper with a hole. Teachers use it for flame tests of gases in secondary chemistry. Science Lab Supplies offers the set from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, science centres, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The test tube, 18 mm in diameter and 150 mm long, holds the reacting substances. The rubber stopper with one hole seals its mouth and carries the 6 mm glass tube, which acts as a narrow outlet where the escaping gas can be lit once air has been driven out.

Applications and Experiments for the Simple Appliances for Burning Gases
The set shows that some gases burn and others do not, using only a few millilitres of gas. It fits NCERT Class 10 acids and metals activities that test hydrogen with a flame, and Class 11–12 practicals on the preparation and properties of gases, carried out as teacher demonstrations.
- NCERT Class 10 science: testing hydrogen from a metal and dilute acid with a burning splint.
- Class 11–12 chemistry: preparation and combustion properties of common laboratory gases.
Hazard: flammable gases such as hydrogen form explosive mixtures with air. Light the jet only after the air has been displaced, use small quantities, wear eye protection and work under teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each set comprises one test tube of 18 mm diameter and 150 mm length, one glass tube of 6 mm outer diameter and one rubber stopper with a hole. Reagents, a stand and a burner are not included and can be quoted separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Simple Appliances for Burning Gases?
One 18 mm x 150 mm test tube, a 6 mm glass tube and a rubber stopper with a hole to join them. Chemicals and a stand are ordered separately.
Is it safe to burn gases in a school laboratory?
Only with care. Hydrogen and other flammable gases can explode when mixed with air, so light the jet only after air is expelled, use tiny amounts and work under supervision with eye protection.
Who supplies the Simple Appliances for Burning Gases?
Science Lab Supplies supplies the set from Ambala, India, and quotes it with the other gas-preparation apparatus in its chemistry range.
Can this set be bought in class quantities?
Yes. State the number of sets and the delivery location, and the quotation will cover that quantity.
