Chemiluminescence: Teacher Demonstration

Description

Engage and entertain your students with this chemiluminescence demonstration. You or your students prepare two stock solutions from the materials provided in this Lab-Aid. When the solutions are poured into the tubes, energy is released as a luminescent blue color. The color lasts for several minutes. Students are introduced to an oxidation-reduction reaction as well as reaction rates in this unique chemical to light energy change. Enough pre-weighed chemicals and solutions are included to perform this demonstration 18 times. This allows you to compare the effects of temperature on the energy change (the amount of light produced).
