Interpretation:
The difference between the given structures using UV-visible spectroscopy is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Spectroscopy method is used to identify the structure of the molecule. It is based on the interactions between matter and electromagnetic radiations. Molecules have bonding or non-bonding electrons that can absorb light while promoting electrons from ground state (HOMO) to excited state (LUMO). The light absorbed is usually in the UV or visible region. Conjugation in molecule also affects the wavelength of light absorbed.
