1
Q
How to calculate photon energy?
A
Energy = planck’s constant * frequency
2
Q
what happens when an electron is excited?
A
Highest occupied molecular orbital to lowest occupied (HOMO to LUMO)
3
Q
electrons in what type of orbitals are more prone to excitation?
A
pi orbitals, as electrons are more dispersed and thus require less energy to excite
