In the octatetraene (C8H10) molecule, what should be the length of the electromagnetic wave required to excite a π electron from the top filled level to the bottom empty level? The length of the molecule can be taken as 9.5 Å. Compare your value with the experimental value λ4.5 = 3020 Å and discuss whether the particle-in-a-box problem is a good approximation.
6. The particle on a ring is a useful model for the motion of electrons around the coronene ring. See a 2-D representation of the coronene molecule below; the dashed line around the periphery of the molecule indicates the electron path. We may treat the structure as a circular ring of radius 420 pm, with 14 electrons in the conjugated system moving along the perimeter of the ring. Assuming that, in the ground state of the molecule, each state is occupied by two electrons, (a) calculate the energy and angular momentum of an electron in the highest occupied level, and (b) calculate the frequency of radiation that can induce a transition between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied levels.
3. Prove that angular momentum of a particle confined to the xy palne is quantized 4. Neutrons have no electric charge, so they do not interact with the atomic electrons. Hence, they are very penetrating (e.g.,typically 10 cm in lead). Neutron diffraction was proposed in 1934, to exploit de Broglie's hypothesis about the wave nature of matter. Calculate the momentum and kinetic energy of a neutron whose wavelength is comparable to atomic spacing (1.8×1010 m)
