Describe the liquid chlorine bleach solution. Describe the evidence that a chemical reaction occurred. Name some practical uses of chemiluminescence by humans. Extensions Fluorescence and phosphorescence are other kinds of luminescence. Students can do research on these and present their findings to the class.
Students can use the internet to find out several real-life applications for luminol.
Students can devise an experiment to test triboluminescence, or the production of light involving pressure or friction being applied to a crystal. All students should be able to participate in this activity. Click here for further information on laboratories with students with special needs. To print out the Data Sheet only, click here .
