Question 30

Roentgen darkened his lab and completely enclosed
his Crookes tube with black photographic paper to
better visualize the Cathode Rays in the tube. During
the experiment, a barium platinocyanide was lying
on a bench meters away from the crookes tube.
After the experiment, no visible light escaped but
the barium platinocyanide glowed.
