77
Q

Why does a molecule absorb some wavelengths of IR radiation?

A

A pair of atoms joined by a covalent bond
can be thought of as being like balls on the
end of a vibrating spring. The bond can
vibrate with different amounts of energy at a
frequency that depends on the masses of the
atoms and the strength of the bond.

78
Q

Why does a molecule absorb some wavelengths of IR radiation?

A

At room temperature, most bonds will vibrate
with the lowest possible amount of energy. But
if radiation of the right frequency is supplied,
the bond can absorb energy and vibrate with
greater amplitude.
