Principle of IR Spectroscopy

The principle of IR Spectroscopy states that the absorption of IR radiations occurs only by those vibrations of bonds in a molecule which are accompanied by change in dipole moment

Only those wavelength of IR radiations are absorbed which have similar energy as that of quantized vibrational energy levels of that molecule.

The vibrational transitions are also accompanied by rotational transitions of the molecule.

The amount of energy or the stretching vibrational frequency of any bond can be calculated using hooke's law which states that

ν =1/2π√(k/µ)

k = force constant

µ = reduced mass

The reduced mass of any bond is given by: µ = m1.m2/m1+m2

m1 and m2 are the mass of atoms joined by bond.

Renewable sources of energy

Renewable sources of energy are the sustainable energy sources because the se are not depleted with usage as they can be replenished either naturally or manually within the short time scale and hence can be used again and again. Advantages/Benefits of Renewable sources of energy ü Ensure energy Security ü R educ tion in greenhouse gas emissions, ü Help to combat the change s in climat ic conditions T ypes of Renewable sources of energy 1. Solar Energy Solar energy is one of the most abundant and widely used renewable source s of energy which can be used as follows: i. Either directly as heat for solar heater for boiling water/preparing food etc. ii. Or converted to electricity using Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Panels which is then used as energy source for diverse purposes. Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Panels : These are the panels prepared using semiconductor materials (e.g., silicon) ...

Bathochromic and Hypsochromic Shift

B athochromic shift - It is the shift of the absorption maxima (λ max ) of a substance towards longer wavelengths . It is also known as red shift . Since, Energy (E) is inversely proportional to Wavelength. So, in Bathochromic shift----energy decreases and wavelength increases. In Bathochromic shift, energy decreases and wavelength increases. Factors causing Bathochromic shift: The bathochromic shift is caused by following: A. Extending Conjugation i. either by increasing double bonds ii. or by adding electron donating groups ( like -OH, -NH 2 ) in conjugation to double bonds. B. Solvent Effects i. The less polar (non-polar) solvents cause bathochromic shift for n-π* transitions. ii. The more polar (polar) solvents cause bathochromic shift for π-π* transitions. Example: Benzene shows π-π* electronic transitions at 255 nm. Adding auxochrome NH 2 to the benzene ring makes it aniline an...

Isotopes (समस्थानिक), Isobars (समभारिक) and Isotones (समन्यूट्रानिक) with examples

Isotopes: Isotopes are the atoms of an element having same atomic number but different mass number. They also have the same number of protons . Example 1 : · Hydrogen has three isotopes : o Protium ( 1 H 1 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 1 o Deuterium ( 1 H 2 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 2 o Tritium ( ( 1 H 3 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 3 Ex ample 2 : · Carbon has two isotopes : o Carbon-12 ( 6 C 12 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 6, Mass number = 12 o Carbon-14 ( 6 C 14 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 6, Mass number = 14 समस्थानिक : समस्थानिक एक तत्व के परमाणु होते हैं जिनकी परमाणु संख्या समान होती है लेकिन द्रव्यमान संख्या भिन्न होती है। उनके ...
