Test how much very cold temperatures can slow down chemical reactions. Activate 2 glowsticks, place one in the freezer and leave one at room temperature. Leave them overnight, then check them in the morning to see if either glowstick is still glowing. If both are still glowing, repeat the experiment for a couple of hours or until one has stopped glowing. Record your observations and times in the space below.
