Q

Why does electronic spectrum in UV-VIS region appear broad

A

since the electronic energy level has a number of vibrational energy levels in it and each of the vibrational energy level has a number of rotational energy levels in it, along with electronic transition vibrational and rotational transitions also occur simultaneously

26
Q

why should there be less energy gap between the bonding and anti bonding orbitals

A

the max absorption is moving to longer wavelengths as the amount of delocalisation increases. so, there should be less energy gap coz amount of delocalization increases

37
Q

Why is IR spectrum also known as vibrational rotational spectrum

A

IR spectroscopy involves transitions in various vibrational energy levels of the molecule. since rotational energies are smaller than vibrational energies, both vibration and rotation occur simultaneously
