UV-Vis Spectroscopy - Spaced Repetition Flashcards

Interactive Course Summary

UV-Visible Spectroscopy and Electronic Transitions — Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy measures valence electron excitations shifting from occupied ground-state molecular orbitals to empty antibonding orbitals (such as $\pi \rightarrow \pi^*$ or $n \rightarrow \pi^*$ transitions). This module uses the Beer-Lambert law to calculate the concentration of conjugated polyene systems.
