A light stick or glow stick is a plastic tube with a vial in it. The instructions say to snap the stick from the middle section. When you snap the tube, it breaks the glass vial. This allows the chemicals in the glass to mix with the chemicals stored in the plastic. Once the substances contact each other, the chemical reaction causes light! The common light sticks use a solution of hydrogen peroxide that is kept separate from a solution of phenyl oxalate ester together with a florescent dye. The color of dye determines the color of the light stick when the solutions are mixed. This results in a fun, colorful light used in carnivals, Halloween and many other festivities. Glow one today!
