How does temperature in a luminol reaction affect light produced?
Wiki User

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.

∙ 12y agoI don't know that I'd describe the glow of luminol as "eerie", but that aside: the glow is the result of a chemical reaction. Arrhenius' Law says that the rate of a chemical reaction depends on temperature; the math works out that at around room temperature, increasing the temperature by 10 Kelvins approximately doubles the reaction rate. So increasing the temperature will result in a more intense glow, and decreasing the temperature will result in a dimmer glow.

∙ 13y agowell if the temperature is cold, then the luminol will glow brighter. if the temperature is hot, then it will glow dim. hope that helped! :)

How do enzymes affect activation energy and reaction temperature?
As kinetic energy, and therefore temperature increases, the number of effective collisions which result in sufficient activation energy also increases, which is why reactions happen at a faster rate at higher temperatures.
Enzymes increase the rate of a reaction by doing what?
An enzyme is a catalyst that speeds up a chemical reaction. It functions by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to occur, and by reducing the activation energy, the reaction speeds up.
What is the affect of temperature on cellular respiration?
Usually, the higher the temperature the faster enzymes react and the quicker a reaction moves forward, however, if the temperature gets too hot, it can denature the proteins involved in the reaction.
How does temperature affect oxygen production in a plant?
Temperature being a limiting factor for biochemical reaction also regulate the rate of photosynthesis in plants. Thus lower and higher temperature, beyond the optimum limit, reduce the rate of photosynthesis and hence production of oxygen is also affected.
How temperature affects active transport?
Temperature always changes the rate of any reaction. An increase in temperature will increase the rate while decrease will slow a reaction.
How does temperature affect luminol at a crime scene?
If the temperature is cold then the luminol will have a brighter excited state than if the temperature was hot or room temp.
Do catalysts affect temperature?
A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
How does temperature affect reaction rate hot?
The Hotter the temperature, the faster the particle moves. During the reaction, atoms transfer in different molecules (or compounds), therefore the temperature does affect the speed of the reaction.
Blobs in the bottle affect the water temperature the reaction?
Does the temperature of water affect the reaction? blobs in the bottle
How does temperature concentration and acidity affect reaction rate?
Generally increasing the temperature and concentration the reaction rate is higher.
How does heat affect the rate of the reaction?
Increasing the temperature the reaction rate increase.
How does temperature affect the Keq of a reaction?
Changing the temperature will change Keq. (apex.)
How do changes in temperature affect the rate of a reaction?
An increase of temperature increase the rate of a reaction.
How does the reaction temperature affect the rate of a chemical reaction?
Changing temperatures has a dramatic affect on the rate of chemical reaction. As an example for every 10 degrees you raise the environment the reaction doubles (to a certain degree)
How does temperature affect the keg of a reaction?
changing true temperature will change Keq (apex)
How would increasing the temperature affect the rate of a reaction?
Doubles it
Does the temperature of the water affect the reaction of the lava lamp?
Yes. The temperature of the liquid and the wax both affect the action of a lava lamp.
