  2. Solvatochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvatochromism

    With various solvents there is a different effect on the electronic ground state and excited state of the solute, so that the size of energy gap between them changes as the solvent changes. This is reflected in the absorption or emission spectrum of the solute as differences in the position, intensity, and shape of the spectroscopic bands .

    The ground state energy would then be 8E 1 = −109 eV, where E 1 is the Rydberg constant, and its ground state wavefunction would be the product of two wavefunctions for the ground state of hydrogen-like atoms: [2]: 262 (,) = (+) /. where a 0 is the Bohr radius and Z = 2, helium's nuclear charge.

  4. Ground state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_state

    Energy levels for an electron in an atom: ground state and excited states. After absorbing energy , an electron may jump from the ground state to a higher-energy excited state. The ground state of a quantum-mechanical system is its stationary state of lowest energy ; the energy of the ground state is known as the zero-point energy of the system.

  5. Field effect (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_effect_(chemistry)

    Field effect on a carbonyl arising from the formal charge on N in a quaternary ammonium salt. A field effect is the polarization of a molecule through space. The effect is a result of an electric field produced by charge localization in a molecule. [1]

  6. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    In chemistry, solvent effects are the influence of a solvent on chemical reactivity or molecular associations. Solvents can have an effect on solubility , stability and reaction rates and choosing the appropriate solvent allows for thermodynamic and kinetic control over a chemical reaction.

    The corresponding monocarbonyls have triplet ground states. Singlet and Triplet Cobalt Complexes. The ground state of Tp i-Pr,Me Co(CO) has two unpaired electrons. [2] The addition of CO to Fe(CO) 4 is an example showing the slowing effect of spin-forbidden reaction takes place when Fe(CO) x is placed under CO pressure. [3] Fe(CO) 4 + CO → Fe ...

  8. Intersystem crossing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersystem_crossing

    Fluorescence microscopy relies upon fluorescent compounds, or fluorophores, in order to image biological systems.Since fluorescence and phosphorescence are competitive methods of relaxation, a fluorophore that undergoes intersystem crossing to the triplet excited state no longer fluoresces and instead remains in the triplet excited state, which has a relatively long lifetime, before ...

  9. Energy level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_level

    In chemistry and atomic physics, an electron shell, or principal energy level, may be thought of as the orbit of one or more electrons around an atom's nucleus. The closest shell to the nucleus is called the "1 shell" (also called "K shell"), followed by the "2 shell" (or "L shell"), then the "3 shell" (or "M shell"), and so on further and ...
