  2. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Chemical coloring of metals is the process of changing the color of metal surfaces with different chemical solutions. The chemical coloring of metals can be split into three types: electroplating – coating the metal surface with another metal using electrolysis. patination – chemically reacting the metal surface to form a colored oxide or ...

  3. Chromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromism

    In chemistry, chromism is a process that induces a change, often reversible, in the colors of compounds.In most cases, chromism is based on a change in the electron states of molecules, especially the π- or d-electron state, so this phenomenon is induced by various external stimuli which can alter the electron density of substances.

  4. Briggs–Rauscher reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Briggs–Rauscher_reaction

    Oscillogram made in July 1972 by Briggs and Rauscher. The Briggs–Rauscher oscillating reaction is one of a small number of known oscillating chemical reactions.It is especially well suited for demonstration purposes because of its visually striking colour changes: the freshly prepared colourless solution slowly turns an amber colour, then suddenly changes to a very dark blue.

  5. Chromate conversion coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_conversion_coating

    The chromate coating acts as paint does, protecting the zinc from white corrosion, thus making the part considerably more durable, depending on the chromate layer's thickness. [8] [9] [10] The protective effect of chromate coatings on zinc is indicated by color, progressing from clear/blue to yellow, gold, olive drab and black.

  6. Blue bottle experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_bottle_experiment

    Blue bottle reaction video. The blue bottle experiment is a color-changing redox chemical reaction. An aqueous solution containing glucose, sodium hydroxide, methylene blue is prepared in a closed bottle containing some air. Upon standing, it spontaneously turns from blue to colorless due to reduction of methylene blue by the alkaline glucose ...

  7. Photochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochromism

    The reversible color change is associated with the tungsten center's ability to undergo oxidation-reduction reactions, alternating between different oxidation states (W⁶⁺ to W⁵⁺ or W⁵⁺ to W⁴⁺). [35] [36] Molybdenum trioxide (MoO 3) is widely used in UV sensing applications due to its selective absorption of UV light.

  8. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. [1] When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is accompanied by an energy change as new products are generated.

  9. Color reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_reaction

    In chemistry, a color reaction or colour reaction is a chemical reaction that is used to transform colorless chemical compounds into colored derivatives which can be detected visually or with the aid of a colorimeter. The concentration of a colorless solution cannot normally be determined with a colorimeter.
