Question

q3

Consider a N2 molecule in its first excited electronic state, that is, when an electron in
the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is promoted to the lowest unoccupied
molecular orbital (LUMO).
Identify the molecular orbital involved and sketch a diagram to show the
transition.
Compare the bond order and bond length of N₂* with N2, where the asterisk
denotes the excited molecule.
Is N₂* diamagnetic or paramagnetic?
When N₂* loses its excess energy and converts to the ground state N2, it emits a
photo of wavelength 470 nm, which makes up part of the aurora lights. Calculate
the energy difference between these level.
