Do glowsticks have radium in them?

No, glowsticks do not contain radium. Glowsticks work by a chemical reaction that produces light through chemiluminescence, typically utilizing a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and a phenyl oxalate ester. Radium is a radioactive element that is not used in glowsticks for safety reasons.


Can a pickle light up a light bulb?

Yes, a pickle can light up a light bulb if it is used to complete an electrical circuit. Pickles contain electrolytes that can act as conductors of electricity, allowing them to power a simple circuit and light up a small light bulb.


Can an apple power a light bulb?

No, an apple does not contain enough energy to power a light bulb. A light bulb requires electricity to produce light, which usually comes from a power source such as batteries, generators, or electrical outlets. The energy stored in an apple is not enough to produce the amount of electricity needed to power a light bulb.


What types of light bulb converts ultraviolet waves in to visible light waves?

A fluorescent light bulb contains a phosphor coating on the inner surface of the bulb, which converts ultraviolet light produced by the mercury vapor inside the bulb into visible light. LED light bulbs do not contain phosphors but instead use semiconductors to directly convert electrical energy into visible light.


How many atoms of mercury are in a light bulb?

Compact fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury. (For that reason, it is important to be very careful with a broken compact fluorescent bulb, because mercury is highly toxic.) Most other kinds of light bulbs do not contain any significant amount of mercury.

Does a flashlight contain an electromagnet?

No, a flashlight does not contain an electromagnet. Flashlights typically use batteries to power a light bulb or LED for illumination.


Does a light bulb contain nitrogen?

An ordinary household Incandescent type light bulb does not contain nitrogen gas. The bulb contains a vacuum surrounding the incandescent elements. There are other kinds of lights that do contain gases, Like Neon, argon and nitrogen but they are not commonly found in homes and and are not generally made as "Bulbs" being more commonly made as gas filled tubes.


Do you have to have the glass on the outside of the light bulb?

Yes, it is used to contain the inert gas that surrounds the filament.
