Mercury does not stick to glass because its cohesive forces are stronger than its adhesive forces with the glass surface. This causes the mercury to form spherical droplets in a tube rather than spreading out or sticking to the glass.


What is in the glass vial the glow stick?

Inside a glow stick, there are two separate compartments: one containing hydrogen peroxide and a fluorescent dye, and the other containing a solution of phenyl oxalate ester and a fluorescent dye called diphenyl oxalate. When you bend the glow stick, the glass vial breaks and the two solutions mix, resulting in a chemical reaction that produces light.

The tendency of molecules of the same kind to stick together is called?

This depends. If the molecules are of different kinds (ie: Water and Glass), then it is called adhesion. If they are of the same kind, it is called cohesion.The tendency of molecules of the same kind to stick to one another is known as cohesion. This is what keeps the molecules together a good example being in water.


When you snap a glow stick what does the snapping the tube do and how does it lead to chemical reaction?

I just had to do a project exactly on this, When you snap a glow stick a chemical change happens. A glow stick has an outer tube (the bendy one) and an inner glass tube (the one you hear cracking). By snapping a glow stick you are cracking open the inner tube which hold chemicals, the outer tube has phenyl oxalate and fluorescent dye in it, and the inner glass tube has a hydrogen peroxide solution in it. When these chemicals are released and come together, it releases energy in the form of light, thus, making a chemical change. So when you do your favorite activity with a glow stick, cracking it (admit it, it's your favorite part), you are breaking the inner glass tube, which then releases the hydrogen peroxide solution into the phenyl oxalate/dye solution, creating an enchantingly glowing stick of light! hope this was helpful! - Jessica
