Answer 4 a-b
**Report 4: Preparation and Properties of Hydrogen and Oxygen**

**1. Generation and Collection of Hydrogen Gas**

- **(a) Observation on adding acid to zinc**
  - When acid is added to zinc, a redox reaction is happening where zinc is oxidized from Zn to Zn²⁺.

**2. Tests on the Hydrogen Gas**

- **(a) Test on igniting hydrogen/air mixture**
  - When they are both ignited, the energy needed is low since hydrogen is in a very small amount in the air and doesn't give out high energy output.

- **(b) Test on igniting pure hydrogen**
  - When hydrogen is ignited in a split, a pop sound is heard.

- **(c) Attempt to ignite hydrogen after inverting bottle**
  - To know it's hydrogen gas, since oxygen is also there, you can hear small pop sounds when hydrogen and oxygen are being burned.

- **(d) Explain your observations from parts a-c.**

**3. Generation and Collection of Oxygen Gas**

- **(a) Observation on adding hydrogen peroxide to yeast**
  - (E) 4th bottle

**4. Tests on the Oxygen Gas**

- **(a) Result of attempting to ignite oxygen**

- **(b) Result of inserting glowing splint into the second bottle of oxygen**
