Organic molecules (that contain carbon and other elements) are often probed using IR radiation. Certain bonds within the molecules vibrate at certain frequencies. If the carbon-oxygen bond in a molecule absorbs radiation of wavelength 9.6 μm, what frequency is that radiation?

Atomic Structure

The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.

Shape of the D Orbital

Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.

Light-induced degradation of molecules, also called photobleaching, is a serious problem in applications that require very high intensities. A molecule of a fluorescent dye commonly used to label biopolymers can withstand about 106 excitations by photons before light-induced reactions destroy its π system and the molecule no longer fluoresces. For how long will a single dye molecule fluoresce while being excited by 1.0 mW of 488 nm radiation from a continuous-wave laser? You may assume that the dye has an absorption spectrum that peaks at 488 nm and that every photon delivered by the laser is absorbed by the molecule.
