The bond dissociation energy of a typical C-F bond in a chlorofluorocarbon is approximately 440 kJ mol-1 . Calculate the maximum wavelength of light that can photodissociate a molecule of CCl2F2, breaking such a C-F bond.
This problem deals with fluorescence and phosphorescence. (a) Someone says that when the quantum yield of molecule (donor) is reduced to 50% of its original value because of the presence of a quencher (acceptor) allowing fluorescent resonance energy transfer, then (i) the efficiency of FRET is 50%, and (ii) the distance between donor and acceptor is 50% of R0. Support these claims if they are true. Correct these claims if they are false. (b) Five mini questions. (i) Fluorescence combines which two of the following transitions: electronic, vibrational, rotational? (ii) Which is helped more by heavy atoms in the emitting molecule: fluorescence, phosphorescence?(iii) The Frank-Condon principle plays a role in which process: absorption, vibrational relaxation, intersystem crossing? (iv) What type of shift is observed for fluorescence: redshift, blueshift? (v) Selection rules indicate that which process is forbidden: fluorescence, phosphorescence, both, neither?
Briefly explain the effect of isotopic substitution in the rotational spectrum of diatomic molecules with appropriate figures. Calculate the atomic mass of 13C given that first rotational absorption for 12C¹0 16 and 13C O is observed at 3.84235cm and 3.67337cm respectively. Assume same bond length and mass of oxygen to be 15.9994 & carbon-12 to be 12.000amu.
(b) The lowest three vibrational energy levels of 127|35CI lie at 191.77, 573.06, and 951.34 cm-1. Determine the force constant, zero-point energy, well- depth and bond dissociation energy for 127135CI.
Does the exclusion rule apply to H2O?
Suppose you were seeking the presence of (planar) S03 molecules in the microwave spectra of interstellar gas clouds. (a) You would need to know the rotational constants A and B. Calculate these parameters for 32S16O3, for which the S-O bond length is 143 pm. (b) Could you use microwavespectroscopy to distinguish the re lative abundances of 32S16O3 and 33S16O3?
5. Spectroscopic measurements indicate that the rotational constants of SO2, a non-linear molecule, are 2.02736, 0.34417, and 0.29354 cm ¹. Note: ks = 0.69503476 cm-¹/K. Reference (NIST): https://cccbdb.nist.gov/expgeom2.asp?casno=7446095&charge=0 (a) Compute Zrot at T = 385 K assuming its symmetry number is o= 2. Hint: Using the rotational temperatures for the molecule might make this easier. (b) At what temperature would the partition function equal 2.4 x 104?
The vibrational frequencies of 23Na'H, 2³Nª³³CI, and 23Na127I are 3.51 × 1013 s-1, 1.10 × 1013 s-', and 0.773 × 1013 s, respectively. Their bond lengths are 1.89 Å, 2.36 Å, and 2.71 Å. What are their reduced masses? What are their force constants? If NaH and NaD have the same force constant, what is the vibrational frequency of NaD? D is ²H.
10. The first five vibrational energy levels of ¹H³5Cl are at 1481.86, 4367.50, 7149.04, 9826.48, and 12399.8 cm ¹. Calculate the dissociation energy of the molecule in units of reciprocal centimetres (cm¯¹). [Note: Assume the second order anharmonicity constant, ye, to be zero.] [Note: Graph paper is available.]
The 3N-6 vibrational modes of a molecule can be sub-subdivided into three general types ofdeformations.(i) Define these and draw their approximate potential energy functions. (ii) Order the three types. Start with the one requiring the least energy to animate.(iii) Where are anharmonic modes generally located in the energetic ordering relative toother modes and what other name(s) are they know by? (iv) Discuss the significance of anharmonic modes and why accurately characterisingthem is key to precise energetic determinations and to accurately modellingspecificity, selectivity and functionality in chemical phenomena.
6) The wavenumber of the fundamental vibrational transition of 79Br8¹Br is 323.2 cm¹¹. Calculate the spring constant (k) of the bond. (note: 79Br = 78.9183 amu and 8¹Br = 80.9163 amu)
1,3,5-Hexatriene (a kind of ‘linear’ benzene) was converted into benzene itself. On the basis of a free-electron molecular orbital model (in which hexatriene is treated as a linear box and benzene as a ring), would you expect the lowest energy absorption to rise or fall in energy as a result of the conversion?
