The ClO2 molecule (which belongs to the group C2v) was trapped in a solid. Its ground state is known to be B1. Light polarized parallel to the y-axis (parallel to the OO separation) excited the molecule to an upper state. What is the symmetry species of that state?
7. Consider the Jablonski diagrams below, where So, S₁, and S2 are all singlet electronic states, and T₁ is a triplet electronic state. (So is the electronic ground state.) The horizontal lines indicate the vibrational energy levels in each electronic state. The arrow drawn on the diagram represents the absorption of a UV photon with = 250 nm, promoting the molecule to a high vibrational level in the S₁ state. (The wavelength values here and below are meant as a guide, but this is not really a quantitative question.) Two different processes are described below the diagrams. Read each one, and then draw an appropriate set of arrows on the corresponding diagram to represent the process described.

This question pertains to the heteronuclear diatomic 1H19 Given that the bond length of 1H19F is 0.91 angstrom (1 angstrom = 10-10m), calculate the moment of inertia. Calculate the rotational constant (in J) for the diatomic in part a. Using your value for the rotational constant in part b, determine the energy of the transition from state 3 to state 4 (in J). Do you expect the energy of the transition from state 3 to state 4 for 2H19F to be larger or smaller than what you computed in part c, assuming that the bond length does not change? Explain your choice based on the relevant equations, or calculate the energy for this transition. Steps 1, 2 and 3 have already been found. I need help with the last question only but I haven't been able to get it solved since there can only be three questions answered. The following answers for step 1-3 are below. 1. moment of inertia = 1.30 × 10-47 kgm2 2. rotational constant = 21.5 cm-1 3. Energy required from transition n= 3 to n= 4 is…

ClO2 is a nonlinear molecule with one unpaired electron. The ground-state has a B1 symmetry. The molecule has been trapped (immobilized) in a solid matrix, lying in the yz plane. Its electronic absorption spectrum showed an allowed transition when using light polarized in the y-direction. To what electronic state was the molecule excited? Justify your answer.
