The question for section 2 is incomplete. However, based on the experiment shown, it is likely asking about the observations and conclusions regarding the burning candles.
Here is an explanation of the experiment:
2. The experiment demonstrates the necessity of oxygen for combustion (burning).
- Observation in Setup A: The candle in setup A is exposed to the open air. It will continue to burn until it runs out of wax or is extinguished manually, because there is a continuous supply of oxygen from the atmosphere.
- Observation in Setup B: The candle in setup B is enclosed by a bell jar. It will burn for a short period and then extinguish. As the candle burns, it consumes the oxygen trapped inside the bell jar. Once the oxygen is depleted, the flame cannot be sustained. You might also observe the water level inside the bell jar rising slightly as the oxygen is consumed.
- Conclusion: This experiment shows that oxygen is essential for burning. Without a continuous supply of oxygen, a flame cannot be maintained.
