Glow Sticks

The liquid inside glowsticks is typically non-toxic and should not be ingested. However, it may cause irritation to the skin or eyes if it comes in contact with them. It's best to wash the affected area with soap and water if this happens.

If glowstick chemicals get in your eyes, immediately flush your eyes with cool water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation or discomfort persists. Avoid rubbing your eyes, as this can further irritate them.

The glow stick in the cold water will not glow as bright as the glow stick in the hot water because when you cool the glow stick down, the chemical process will slow down. The glow stick in the hot water will glow brighter but for a shorter period of time.

A glow stick glows as the result of the chemical reaction between two liquids - the 'oxilate' typically trichloro-6-carbonpentoxyphenyl and phenylethynyl.

The chemical reaction for this kind of heatless light happens when you mix multiple chemical compounds. When you combine two or more compounds, the atoms may rearrange themselves to form new compounds. Depending on the nature of these compounds, this chemical reaction will cause either a release of energy or absorption of energy.

We know that we can activate a glow stick by bending and then shaking it. When you bend it, a very fragile glass vial inside of it breaks and releases the chemical inside (hydrogen peroxide) to mix with the other substance (phenyl oxlate ester).

When the two compounds are allowed to mix, they go through a chemical reaction (oxidation), which makes a different, unstable chemical, called peroxyacid ester. This new unstable substance decomposes into a different compound, (phenol and a cyclic peroxy compound) and then to carbon dioxide. The energy caused by the decomposition makes the particles in the fluorescent dye move faster and this creates light. The color of the fluorescent dye determines what color the light will be. The process by which this happens is called chemiluminescence.

It depends on how much of the ingredient is ingested. A small amount will probably do nothing, but since it is a skin irritant, it may cause swelling and a rash. This may mean that what you swallow will cause the throat to swell up and inhibit breathing. It is also possible to have an allergic reaction to it. The biggest issue would be the glass inside the tube which can cut internal organs.

The two chemicals in glow sticks are hydrogen peroxide and phenyl oxalate ester.

Glow sticks are typically made of a plastic outer casing that contains a mixture of chemicals. The chemicals usually include hydrogen peroxide, a phenyl oxalate ester, and a fluorescent dye. When the glow stick is bent and cracked, the chemicals mix and create a chemical reaction that produces light.

Glow sticks work due to a chemical reaction between a dye, a fluorescent or phosphorescent chemical, and hydrogen peroxide. The dye emits light when it reacts with the chemicals present in the glow stick, causing it to glow.

Illuminated manuscripts often used materials like gold leaf, silver leaf, and vibrant pigments made from minerals and plants to make the pages appear to glow. These materials were applied meticulously by skilled scribes and illuminators to create intricate designs and embellishments that captured light and gave the pages a radiant quality.

see a doctor idiot

no there not toxic it will just make the cat sick for a few days don't worry it won't die

You can get a poster putty stain off of walls by mixing vegetable and mineral oil together, then applying it to the stain using paper towels. Wipe the wall using a bit of pressure. When the stain has gone, you can get rid of the oily residue by wiping the area with a sponge that has been dipped into a warm soapy solution.

The chemical in a glow stick is not poisonous unless ingested in large quantities. My vet said toxicity level for a rat is 800mg, so a cat would have to eat quite a bit and there is usually not even very much of the poisonous ingredient in the sticks to have a longterm negative effect on them. The cat will probably react strongly to the taste, but most likely will be able to get in out of her mouth within a couple hours. If your pet is still having symptoms after 24hrs, take them to the vet.

the original purpose of glow sticks was to just create light because At the time it was quite a remarkable achievement because either electrical mains or battery were the energy sources for most light producing devices. so when glow sticks were created; something that provides light without the use of electricity it was quite astonishing.

try oops! or goof-off

Sorry !! Offensive Question, You Will Be Reported Mediately !

I think the pink glowstick lasts the longest.

No, a glow stick cannot be reused. When the stick is broken, the chemicals, which have been held separate, are released. They will mix and begin the reaction that releases the light. The reaction will continue until the chemicals are "used up" and the stick stops glowing. The light stick cannot then be reused.

A glow stick stops glowing after the chemical reaction releases all of its energy. Specifically, after about one or two days. Below is a more detailed explanation of the chemical reactions taking place.

You get them in Early Poptropica island, then you go right, then you go down the well and you jump to the top left ledge! Hope I helped you a bit!

Glow sticks are widely available for purchase from many different retail locations. One of the most inexpensive places to purchase them is the Dollar Tree. They can also be purchased at other chain retailers such as Family Dollar, Walmart, and Target.

Glow sticks glow in cold and warm water, but they last longer in warm water.

When ever you wanna slow down the process of it glowing
