COLLECTION OF HYDROGEN

                       When hydrogen gas is collected in the boiling tube, the air inside the tube is displaced downwards. This method of collecting gases is called the the DOWNWARDS DISPLACEMENT OF AIR. Light gases which are less heavier than air are collected by this method.
                                Hydrogen does not dissolve much in water. Therefore it can be collected over water too.
