1.Explain how you know that a chemical reaction is occurring within the glowstick.
2.Explain, on the molecular level, why a warm glowstick glows brighter than a cold glowstick.
3.Explain how this demonstrated the conservation of energy in chemical reactions.

1.Glow sticks produce a type of light called chemoluminescence. Chemicals undergo chemical reactions and release energy in the form of light. You know that a chemical change has occurred, because the release of light is a sign of a chemical reaction.
2.The chemical reaction taking place in a glow stick produces light instead of heat, but it is influenced by heat. The hotter the reaction, the faster it will occur and the brighter the glow stick will be.
