Geissler Tubes
Let's do science!
Why does the color in each tube change if the gas is the same?
With the Geissler Tubes, we will be able to notice how the color being emitted from the tubes changes as the pressure decreases. When you add a high voltage supply to a gas that is at a low enough pressure, the gas with start to emit a glow. This year, I was assigned the project of the Geissler Tubes. Every year at Harmony Science Academy, we do these hands on projects to learn in a new perspective.
For this project we will use:
Geissler Tubes
Tesla Coil
Safety Regulations:
The Tesla coil is a device that exerts high voltages of energy. It is highly recommended to do this project under adult supervision. The Geissler Tubes are also very sensitive. Please handle with care.
