Applications/Characteristics of
Neon is a boring, colorless gas…until
it’s hooked up with some electricity!
When excited with energy, neon will emit a brilliant orange-red
hue, the same color you see in red neon signs. Understandably,
neon signs that light up signs at night are the most common use of
neon (there’s a reason the signs are named after it). Go to Las
Vegas at night, and you will be surrounded by neon! That is, if
you’re in an area with lots of red neon signs; only red neon signs
have pure neon in them. Neon signs that aren’t red are filled with
other gases, despite the name.

Liquid neon is an important cryogenic refrigerant (cryogenic is a

branch of science that deals with the production and effects of
very low temperatures). In fact, liquid neon has three times more
refrigerating capacity per fixed unit of volume than liquid
hydrogen. That means it can be pretty darn cold.
