Water is a compound made up of combining two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. They combine in the ratio 2:1 to form water. Since two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom combines, the amount of hydrogen is double the amount of oxygen. This is why, the gas collected in one of the test tubes is double in amount than the other.
The gas of double amount is Hydrogen gas.
