How Do Glow Sticks Work?

Glow sticks have long been a staple parties and holidays like Halloween. It's almost magical how you can just crack a plastic tube and have it light up all without batteries. In this video, I talk about the chemiluminescent reaction that takes place inside of glow sticks and the ingenious mechanism that combines the two solutions. I also talk about a chemiluminescent reaction very similar to glow sticks, the one that takes place between luminol and hydrogen peroxide.
Thank you so much for watching this video! If you would like to suggest a video idea please leave it in the comments, and if you enjoyed please like and subscribe!
