The particle in a box (PiB) model can be applied to electrons which move freely in a molecule such as π electrons. 1,3-butadiene CH2=CH-CH=CH2 has an absorption peak in the UV-Vis spectrum at 290 nm. This peaks is assigned to the π → π* transition of the lowest energy. This transition is also called the HOMO → LUMO transition. As a simple approximation, let’s consider molecule of butadiene as being potential 1D box of length 3 * 1.4 Å = 4.2 Å, when counting three carbon-carbon bonds each 1.4 Å long. Also let’s consider the four π electrons occupy molecular orbitals MOs and energy of MOs is calculated according to the PiB model. a) Sketch the scheme of MOs of butadiene molecule and populate them with electrons. b) Calculate the wavelength of light λcalc which corresponds to absorption of light and excitation of π electron from the HOMO to the LUMO in the molecule of butadiene. c) Compare this calculated λcalc with experimental value of λexp = 290 nm provided above, and explain the…

It is commonly the case that 2 energy states have the same energy. States at the same energy are known as degenerate. A given molecule has 2 degenerate states that are 700 cm-¹ (wavenumbers, 1/2) above the lowest energy state. Remember that E = h * v= h * C/ where c is the speed of light. a) Calculate the temperature at which this molecule has a 15% probability to be in either of the higher energy degenerate states. b) If you were able to observe this molecule for a 100 second time period, what would be the total amount of time you observe the molecule to be in the upper degenerate energy states and what would be the total amount of time you observe the molecule to be in the lower energy state? c) If there were 100 molecules present, on average about how many would be in the upper degenerate energy states and how many would be in the lower energy state?
