Answer
The aim of this experiment is to show that Oxygen is given out during Photosynthesis.
Hydrilla plants can be used for the experiment. Hydrilla plants belong to freshwater Aquatic habitat.
The gas formed is Oxygen. Oxygen is essential for the respiration of most living organisms.
To confirm the presence of Oxygen in the test tube, I will remove the test tube with the gas carefully, and insert a glowing matchstick inside it. If the matchstick starts burning, the gas is Oxygen.
The labelled diagram of this experiment in its 'initial stage' is given below:
