For each dye, a 104 M stock dye solution was prepared in reagent grade methyl alcohol (Fisher, CAS# 67561). A higher level means a higher potential energy.

You will record the UV-Vis absorption spectrum of each dye using either the Varian or Ocean Opticsspectrometers available in the laboratory. Electrons change energy levels when radiation is absorbed. For the dyes studied in this experiment the number of electrons (N) is an even number, p. There will be two electrons per energy level because of the Pauli Exclusion Principle. 0 /Nums _________________________________________________________________________________________________. All six dyes: 1,1'-Diethyl-4,4'-cyanine iodide, 1,1'-Diethyl-4,4'-carbocyanine iodide, 1,1'-Diethyl4,4'-dicarbocyanine iodide, 1,1'-Diethyl-2,2'-cyanine iodide, 1,1'-Diethyl-2,2'-carbocyanine iodide and 1,1'-Diethyl-2,2'-dicarbocyanine iodide and methanol are considered highly toxic and irritate the skin. I found a large absolute percent error in the PIB approximation for dye 4 with respect to the experimental, and a breakdown in the positive linear association between the number of carbons framed by nitrogen atoms in the dyes and the experimental wavelengths when dye 4 is added to dyes 1, 2, and 3. % In the free electron model, represents a constant for a series of dyes of a given type.

The hypothesis in this experiment is that the ( electrons of a conjugated dye molecule (or any conjugated carbon-carbon bond system) can be modeled using the "particle in a box" model. Color results when a compound absorbs light in a portion of the visible spectrum and transmits (or reflects) the remainder. << 100 East Normal Avenue Suppose the total wave function is (q1,q2,q3,) where q1,q2,q3, are the coordinates / quantum numbers of electrons 1, 2, 3, If electrons 1 and 2 are exchanged: Where L can be calculated from the equation: , where is taken from highest maximum wavelength. 0 In the case of electrons in the particle in a box there are two quantum numbers, n and spin. 0 Click here to view this article (Truman addresses and J.
