Why this works in Chemistry

Two of the four use a splint, and that is where the marks go. Hydrogen needs a burning splint and gives a pop, oxygen needs a glowing splint and relights it, and pupils swap them because both sound right. With the rows together the class sees that the test and the result are a pair.

Clear the result column and the class writes each result before you show the full table, then send it to Stimulus Questions for exam style questions about the same four gases.
