What type of energy transformation used in a glow stick?
Chemical energy is converted to light energy in a glow stick. When the chemicals inside the glow stick mix, a chemical reaction occurs that produces light without generating heat.
How do single use glow sticks work?
Disposable glow sticks utilize a chemical reaction to produce their familiar green glow. A glass capsule inside the plastic tube releases a phenyl oxalate solution into the surrounding hydrogen dioxide solution, and once they are mixed well, they react with each other and produce light energy. It is possible to manipulate the color of the glow stick depending on the chemicals used.
What type of energy can be converted to kinetic energy when it is used to do work?
Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy when it is used to do work.
What type of energy is used as you jump?
The primary type of energy used when you jump is mechanical energy. This includes both potential energy (stored energy from being lifted off the ground) and kinetic energy (energy of movement as you are in the air).
When stored energy is used it is changed into what type of energy?
Stored energy is typically changed into kinetic energy or thermal energy when it is used.
What type of energy transformation used in a glow stick?
Chemical energy is converted to light energy in a glow stick. When the chemicals inside the glow stick mix, a chemical reaction occurs that produces light without generating heat.
What type of energy dose a light stick have?
Assuming that you are referring to non-electric light sticks, it is chemical energy. The reaction is started by mechanical energy (cracking the stick). The chemical nature of glow sticks is also evident in the fact that they die down eventually after the reactants are used up.
What is an whell in Poptropica?
a glow stick which is used to get the gold egg for the giant to get past him and get the flag A GLOW STICK
Are glow sticks made with water?
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.
What has to be brokn before it is used?
an egg and a glow stick
How are different colours produced in glow sticks?
Different colors in glow sticks are produced by combining different chemical compounds known as dyes and phosphors. When the chemicals inside the glow stick react and mix together, they emit light of various colors. The specific color of light emitted is determined by the type and amount of chemicals used in the glow stick.
What chemicals make a glow stick glow longer?
To make a glow stick glow longer, you can use chemicals that slow down the rate of the chemical reaction that produces the light. One way to do this is by using a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide or a lower concentration of the dye in the glow stick solution. This can help make the glow stick last longer before the reaction is fully used up.
Is phosphorus in glow sticks?
No, phosphorus is NOT in glow sticks. Phosphorus is way to dangerous to be put in glow sticks. While a glow stick does have phosphorescence (meaning glow after illumination), it does not have phosphorus.
Three examples of chemiluminescence?
Glows sticks are a common type of chemiluminescent. When the glass vial of hydrogen peroxide reacts with the phenyl oxalate ester (oxidizing it), a glow is produced; the color based on the fluorescent dye also in the stick. Another example is luminol, which is used in crime scene investigation do detect blood (the chemical reacts with iron in the hemoglobin). In nature, the glow from fireflies is another example of chemiluminescence.
Why do glow-in-the-dark things stop glowing after some time?
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.
What element is used in glow sticks?
Chemical compounds known as fluorescers, such as phenyl oxalate ester, are typically used in glow sticks to produce the glowing effect. These compounds react with hydrogen peroxide inside the glow stick, emitting light through a chemiluminescent reaction.
Is krypton in a glow stick?
No, krypton is not typically used in glow sticks. Glow sticks usually contain a hydrogen peroxide solution, a phenyl oxalate ester, and a fluorescent dye, which react to produce light. Krypton is a noble gas that is typically used in lighting and photography.
