It describes two separated liquids inside a stick that combine when the glass tube breaks, releasing energy as light rather than heat. The passage also covers how temperature affects reaction speed and brightness, why warm sticks glow brighter but fade faster, and how reflective tape, glow-in-the-dark stars, and phosphorescence create illumination differently.

Suddenly it glows an eerie green, bright enough to swing on your wrist as you walk from house to house. But here's the strange part: if you touch that glowing stick, it feels cool, not warm. How can something make light without making any heat?  \nThe answer is a bit of science with a big name: chemiluminescence, which simply means \"light made by chemicals. \" Inside every glow stick are  \ntwo separate liquids, and one of them sits in a thin glass tube. When you bend the stick, that glass tube breaks and the two chemicals rush together and mix. Their reaction gives off energy as light instead of heat, so the glow is cold to the touch.  \nBecause it's all about a chemical reaction, temperature changes how fast that reaction goes. On a chilly night, the chemicals move slowly, so a cold glow stick looks dim and can last a long time. Warm it up in your hands or a bowl of hot water, and it will suddenly shine much brighter. The tradeoff is that a warm, bright stick burns out faster, like a candle racing to the end.  \nGlow sticks aren't the only things that light up in the dark, but they work differently from your glow-in-the-dark stars. Those plastic stars use a paint called a phosphor that soaks up light like a sponge soaks up water. Hold them under a lamp, then flip off the switch, and they slowly release that stored light for minutes afterward. This trick has a name too: phosphorescence, and unlike aglow stick, it can be recharged again and again.  \nThat same idea of catching light helps keep trick-or-treaters safe on Halloween night. Reflective tape on a costume or bag doesn't make its own glow, but it bouncesa car's headlights straight back to the driver. A glowing bracelet, a strip of shiny tape, and a small flashlight can make you easy to spot in the dark. Isn't it wild that the same glow stick lighting up your costume uses the very same kind of chemistry that makes some deep-sea fish and fireflies shine?  \nHow Glow Sticks Glow  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What does the word \"chemiluminescence\" mean, according to the passage?\u003Cbr>A.
