Consider the diagram, shown below, representing a six carbon atom cyclic benzene molecule with six pi bonds. The length of the molecule is its circumference which is just the number of bonds times the length of each bond. The length of each carbon bond is 0.12 nm. A photon strikes the bezene ring and excites an electron from the n = 1 energy level to n = 2. What was the energy of this photon? H H C H C H C 8.7 eV 2.9 eV 11.6 eV 1.45 eV H H
