This could be due to the phosphorus in the roots that is exposed to the air causing a chemiluminescence .
most glow sticks are listed as non toxic, however be sure to check each package as there are some camping , industrial and military ones that are toxic
Some medicines are photoreactive and will deteriorate if exposed to extended direct lighting.
Glow? I doubt it. Call the Poison Control Center at 800-222-1222.
White phosphorus is a very reactive chemical because of its structure. When it is heated some, it can react with oxygen to create phosphorus pentoxide (it is in this exothermic reaction that you see the glow). So it is indeed a chemical change.
It can't be i once burst one and swollowed some of the liquid and got some in my eye. But don't try it. Each case is different if you or someone else has swallowed a glow stick or the contents of a glow stick please call 800-376-4766 for free professional advice.
When things that are supposed to glow in the dark don't, it is usually because they were not exposed to other sources of light. For example, glow stars only glow if the light in the room they decorate has been on for sometime, in a kind of absorbtion process. Without previous contact with a light source they can't glow.
it is a party where it is glow in the dark so you should wear some thing white if you don't have anything glow in the dark.
Some digital clocks glow in the dark because if you are wearing it in the dark you can read the time.
Get some glow-in-the-dark paint, or self-adhesive sticker material.
A fluorescent tube contains (when operating) a plasma, and this excites phosphors coated on the inside of the tube. Some of these phosphors are phosphorescent, that is they will glow in the dark for a while due to being exposed to light. But that glow will soon cease. Other phosphors are fluorescent, that is they will glow only while excited. So the glow you observe is due to the phosphorescent particles in the coating, and they will soon diminish in brightness.
the unicorn, mermaid, and fairy do. at least, from the fantasy pack one. ;D
These materials absorb light energy in the day and they are able to give off this energy in the dark or at night. Some examples of these materials are glow in the dark stickers, glow in the dark watches and glow in the dark bouncy balls.
GE makes some excellent glow-in-the-dark clock, which go well in children's rooms.
you can buy glow in the dark sticks and bracelets in the shops.....
becasue they are glow in the dark and some molecules in the rock are flourescent and that's what make it glow
Some diamonds are fluorescent. This means that light enters the stone and the wave length is converted to a longer light wave. Not all diamonds are fluorescent. No diamond will 'glow in the dark' without first being exposed to a light source.
bioluminescence. Chemicals in their skin.
