The purpose of this lab is for students to investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction. Key Science Topics: • Kinetic Molecular
Question to Investigate. How does warming or cooling a glow stick affect its chemical reaction? Materials for the Demonstration. • Hot water in an insulated cup.
For this experiment you will find out how temperature affects the chemical reaction that occurs in light sticks. The chemiluminescence depends on the.
chemical reactions and a variable by exposing glow sticks to different ... In this glow stick experiment
Summary of Light Stick Reaction Mechanism. Page 8. Page 9. Maxwell–Boltzmann Distributions. • Temperature is defined as a measure of the average kinetic energy
A chemical reaction takes place which causes light to be given out. (a) How did increasing the temperature affect the brightness of the glow stick?
Experiment: Temperature Effects on Chemical Reactions. After students familiarize with glow stick anatomy challenge them with an experiment to.
Crack 2 glow sticks and place one in each beaker. ? Record which glow stick is brightest and dimmest. Results: temperature the brighter the reaction.
trying a reaction for the first time. Objectives. This experiment covers some key ideas in kinetics. Light sticks will be used to.
Which will glow the longest: a room temperature or cold glowstick? Faster moving molecules (warmer temps) make the chemical reaction in the glowstick.
