Indicate if they are true or false and give a brief explanation.
- The probability of spontaneous emission depends on the population of the initial excited level
- The intensity of light absorbed by a molecule increases with the energy it has.
Predict the shape of the nitronium ion, NO2+, from its Lewis structure and the VSEPR model. It has one Raman active vibrational mode at 1400 cm−1, two strong IR active modes at 2360 and 540 cm−1, and one weak IR mode at 3735 cm−1. Are these data consistent with the predicted shape of the molecule? Assign the vibrational wavenumbers to the modes from which they arise.
Find the frequency of a photon whose energy would be sufficient to
cleave a Cl-Cl molecule. Use the Planck equation and the following data: -
