Here is the visible absorbance spectrum and electromagnetic spectrum. 1. Determine which molecule (a,b,c, or d) has the smaller HOMO-LUMO gap. Briefly explainyour reasoning. rememeber more conjugation is a smaller gap.
The figure below represents the highest accupied molecular orbitals (HOMOS) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) for an organic compound with a ketone functional group. The and n orbitals represent the HOMOS and the a* represents the LUMO orbital. л" E I Nonpolar solvent I* Л Polar solvent To The left side HOMOS and LUMO represent the molecule in a nonpolar solvent, and the right side represent the HOMOS and LUMD in a polar solvent, such as water. You can see the change in the energy of the HOMOS and LUMO when the polar solvent interacts with the electrons in the ann orbitals. Study the figure and choose which of the following statements are true or false about why there is a blue shift in the electronic transition. Select all that are True. the energy gap between the n MO and the n* MO is larger in the polar solvent than in the nonpolar solvent, so the photon needed to excite the electron would require more energy when the molecule is in the polar solvent the energy gap…
The photo dimerization of benzophenone to benzopinacol is initiated by what type of electronic transition that then rapidly decomposes to a diradical since putting in electrons in anti bonds breaks bonds! The diradical then starts abstracting hydrogens from solution as pictured in the text? σ = electrons in sigma bonds n = electrons in non-bonding orbitals π electrons in pi bonds. anti bonds Hint: This process is very important because although the molecule responsible for human vision (retinal) is not a very long conjugated pi system, this transition allows retinal to absorb visible light. a. n to σ* b. σ to σ* C. π το π d. n to П e. σ to П* f. π to σ'
