Answer to Question #5033 in Physical Chemistry for whitney andrews

Question

you have the following linear, conjugated molecule: C8H10
a). write an expression for the length (L) (8 Pi e-)
B). Assume average C-C, C=C bond length is (a). Determine the probability of finding a spin-up Pi e- in the highest energy level (HOMO) between C1 and C2.
C). Light with wave length Lambda is incident on this organic polymer, and ionized electrons of mass (Me-) are detected. The ionization potential of the molecule is Phi. write an expression for the de Brogile wavelength, (lambda e-) of the ejected electron.
