no but it can be slowed down by placing it in the freezer
a glow stick can be a endothermic or exothermic reaction
Decomposition.
Yes there is a pigment in the stick after the chemical reaction & it will stain floors & textiles
a glow stick is made of egg yolk and then t
A perfect example is a common glow stick. In a glow stick, phenyl oxalate, fluorescent dye, and hydrogen peroxide mix to produce a chemiluminescent reaction (generating light from chemical energy).

Decomposition.
In a glow stick a chemical reaction occur; the energy is released.
Glow sticks can last over 4 days if you get the right ones. It usually depends on the colour and size of your glow stick. To make the glow stick last longer throw it in the fridge freezer to slow the chemical reaction down.
No. Glow stick uses a rather complicated chemical reaction that involves, among other things, hydrogen peroxide and a fluorescent dye.
There is no water used in the making of a standard glow stick, it is simply a chemical reaction between two chemicals. Water can however be used to make a glow stick brighter.
When you snap a glow stick to make it glow, it will glow.
If the temperature of the glow stick (chemiluminescence) is warmer, it releases a brighter glow and has a shorter reaction time. If the temperature of the glow stick is colder, it releases a dimmer glow but has a longer reaction time. Lower temperatures slow reaction rates and release less light intensity then higher temperatures.
The better question is does a glow stick glow longer in hot or cold environments. Here since its a chemical reaction heat acts as a catalyst and speeds up the process. So in warm weather you'll get brighter glow that lasts significantly shorter then a glow stick in a cold environment. Funny enough if you cool down a glow stick enough (about -60 F) then the process will stop altogether.

You you break a glow stick it will be shorter in size and may not glow well.
The person who invented the glow stick is Thomas Edison
