The "electromagnetic spectrum" of an object has a different meaning‚ and is instead the characteristic distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by that particular object. We tend to witness different radiations of the electromagnetic spectrum without knowing‚ example is the visible light that

General Chemistry Laboratory 151 Chemiluminescence Introduction: The objective of tis experiment was to carry out systematic series of experiments in order to determine which chemicals and which ratios of chemicals produce the brightest light. Also‚ this experiment will determine which chemical produces the longest light. Chemiluminescence is the emission of light (luminescence)‚ as the result of a chemical reaction. There may also be limited emission of heat. This occurs because the

Chemiluminescence can be defined as the emission of light by a chemical reaction that does not produce heat. Chemiluminescence can also be found in nature‚ where it is referred to as bioluminescence. This can often be found in many deep sea fish‚ algae‚ and fireflies. Luminol is one of many chemicals that can be used to create chemiluminescence outside of nature. Scientists are very interested chemiluminescence because it could be very helpful in many real life situations such as in glowsticks. The military

It is made up of ice‚ rock‚ dust‚ carbon dioxide‚ ammonia‚ methane and more. Some researchers think comets might have originally brought some of the water and organic molecules to Earth that now make up life here. Comets become visible as they near the Sun.
