3.12 Properties of Photons
3.11 Spectroscopy and the Electromagnetic Spectrum
A student uses absorption spectroscopy to analyze the stretching and bending vibrations of covalent bonds in a sample of gaseous carbon dioxide, \(\text{CO}_2\text{(g)}\). Which region of the electromagnetic spectrum is absorbed to promote these molecular vibrational transitions, and how does the energy of a single photon in this region compare to the energy of a single photon of ultraviolet (\(\text{UV}\)) radiation?
