Consider the solvatochromic complex, [Mo(bipy)(CO)4]. The complex has a MLCT peak in the UV-vis spectrum. This peak is at 533 nm in acetonitrile solvent and at 584 nm in benzene solvent. In a 50:50 acetonitrile:benzene mixture, the peak is at 559 nm. Is the mixture of acetonitrile and benzene immediately surrounding the [Mo(bipy)(CO)4] molecules less than, equal to, or greater than a 50:50 mixture (acetonitrile:benzene)? Justify your answer. (HINT: Do you need to convert the wavelengths to a more appropriate unit?)
