What is phenyl oxalate ester?
this is a element that i dont know
What happens when you get phenyl oxalate ester in your mouth?
diirrrrrrrrr
What is inside glowy sticks?
phenyl oxalate ester and dye solution
What is the word equation for glow sticks?
I am not entirely sure but I do know that the molecular formulas for hydrogen peroxide and phenyl oxalate ester are (respectively) H2O2 and C14H10O4. Im pretty sure the answer is: hydrogen peroxide added to phenyl oxalate ester yields trichlorophenol added to carbon dioxide
Is there radiation in glow sticks?
No. The glowing is because of chemiluminesence. A chemical reaction made of usually hydrogen peroxide and a mixture of phenyl oxalate ester.
What is the Prepration of phenyl benzoate from phenol?
reacting a benzoyl chloride with a phenol to get an phenyl benzoate(ester).
What combinations of light and hues make fluorescent colors?
You cannot make fluorescent colours simply by mixing any coloured paints. Fluorescent paints are fluorescent because they contain a substance that fluoresces. This means that the substance absorbs light or heat and then readmits it at a different wavelength (usually in the visible light range) when its atoms are excited. Such a substance is fluorescein, a fluorescent dye. Fluorescence is used in strip lighting where a substance called phosphor, which coats the inside of the tube, and which glows when subjected to fluorescent mercury vapour which is in the tube. Another substance, phenyl oxalate ester, glows in light sticks. Therefore, you can mix different colours as much as you wish, but they will never fluoresce unless the particular fluorescent substance is included with the paint pigment in the paint.
Why do glow sticks run out?
Glow sticks create energy when two separate chemicals are mixed. A fluorescent dye absorbs the energy from the reaction and creates light. Eventually the two chemicals are completely reacted and can no longer supply energy to the dye. The chemicals normally used are phenyl oxalate and hydrogen peroxide. When the inside container is ruptured, they mix. The oxidation reaction creates a peroxyacid ester which rapidly decomposes into carbon dioxide and releases photons into the fluorescent dye in the mix. The reaction also releases phenol, which can be harmful.
What makes glow stick chemicals react?
The two chemicals in glow sticks are hydrogen peroxide and phenyl oxalate ester. The chemical reaction for this kind of heatless light happens when you mix multiple chemical compounds. When you combine two or more compounds, the atoms may rearrange themselves to form new compounds. Depending on the nature of these compounds, this chemical reaction will cause either a release of energy or absorption of energy. You activate a glow stick is by bending, and then shaking it. When you bend it, a very fragile glass vial inside of it breaks and releases the chemical inside (hydrogen peroxide) to mix with the other substance (phenyl oxalate ester). When these are combined they go through a chemical reaction (oxidation), which makes a different, unstable chemical, called peroxyacid ester. This new unstable substance decomposes into a different compound, (phenol and a cyclic peroxy compound) and then to carbon dioxide. The energy caused by the decomposition makes the particles in the fluorescent dye move faster and this creates light. The color of the fluorescent dye determines what color the light will be. This process is called chemiluminescence.
What happens if you get hydrogen peroxide and phenyl oxalate ester in your eye?
like from a glow stick... i dont know...but do you think its possible to get high from having the stuff inside the glow sticks like all over your arms legs face...like tons of glow sticks... cause.... umm yeah...
What is the chemical property of a glow stick how do you compare chemical properties?
Glow sticks produce an chemical property called chemiluminescence. This means that chemical reactions produce light. Glow sticks are made of three chemicals: diphenyl oxalate, hydrogen peroxide, and a fluorescent dye. The hydrogen peroxide is contained in a glass vial suspended in the diphenyl oxalate/dye solution, which is inside the glow stick itself. When you bend the plastic glow stick far enough, it breaks the glass vial inside, which releases the hydrogen peroxide, causing it to mix with the diphenyl oxalate and dye. When this happens, a chemical reaction occurs that breaks the diphenyl oxalate into two molecules of phenol and a peroxyacid ester. The peroxyacid ester decomposes into carbon dioxide and releases energy in the process. The energy is absorbs by the fluorescent dye, which is then re-emitted as a photon (light).
Three examples of chemiluminescence?
Glows sticks are a common type of chemiluminescent. When the glass vial of hydrogen peroxide reacts with the phenyl oxalate ester (oxidizing it), a glow is produced; the color based on the fluorescent dye also in the stick. Another example is luminol, which is used in crime scene investigation do detect blood (the chemical reacts with iron in the hemoglobin). In nature, the glow from fireflies is another example of chemiluminescence.
