Science PBL Project for 2014

1. Science PBL Project for 2014 Welcome Ladies and Gentleman to the light side of Neon.

2. William Ramsey discovered it, and the first person to make a neon lamp was Georges Claude • George Claude must have been brilliant to create neon.

3. One of the Noble gases are Neon which emits a fiery red, and a mixture of argon and minute particles of mercury which emits a subdued blue. • This is the dark side of Neon.

4. Neon and a Combination of Argon. • This is an example of what Neon and Argon can do.

5. It is “capped off” by a couple of glass electrodes then wire passes from the outside to the inside • Please do not attempt to drain or add Neon to signs at home leave it for professional Conduits or electricians.

6. PBL Answer • Electrical currents activate the gas atoms and the electrons, which knocks electrons out of their current orbit and finally ionizes the atoms.

7. PBL Answer • One is clear glass tubing with neon which produces a red color, the second way is colors produced by the “ inert gasses” in the tubing’s with some florescent baked/painted on the inside. The third and final way is to use colored glass in combination with neon or argon to produce multiple colors

8. They can last for 15 to 8 years. • And old Neon Sign

9. More than 150 colors A Vivid Example of 150 colors.
