Question

Marcus is teaching a lesson on energy transformations to his class. He cracks a glow stick to teach this practice and states that the energy in the glow stick is transformed. Assuming that the glowstick is a closed system and all of the energy gets transfomred, explain how the chemical energy of the glow stick compares to the light energy after he cracks it.

Answer 1

this occurs because the energy of the constituents is greater than the energy of the material formed and this excess is what we can appreciate in the form of ligh

Step-by-step explanation:

When the light stick breaks, it allows substances to mix, produced by a chemical reaction, which releases light into the environment.

The energy released is the energy energy of the excess when the transformation takes place, this occurs because the energy of the constituents is greater than the energy of the material formed and this excess is what we can appreciate in the form of light,
