Photochemistry
Photochemistry : Branch of chemistry which deals with the study of chemical
reactions that proceed with the absorption of light by atoms or molecules.
Example: photosynthesis, the degradation of plastics and the formation of vitamin D
with sunlight.
Principles
Light is a type of electromagnetic radiation, a source of energy. The
Grotthuss- Draper law states that light must be absorbed by a chemical substance in
order for a photochemical reaction to take place. According Stark-Einstein law in
primary photochemical reaction each molecule of reacting substance absorbs one
quantum of radiation which leads to photochemical change. For each photon of light
absorbed by a chemical system, no more than one molecule is activated for a
photochemical reaction.

Photochemistry deals with the study of photochemical reactions.
The photochemical reactions are caused by the absorption of light
radiations (photons) from visible and ultra violet regions (200-800nm).
The photons supply the necessary energy to the reactants so then the
excited reacting molecule reacts to produce product.

7. Electromagnetic radiations
Electromagnetic Radiation
Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy that is transmitted through space with
velocity of light (C = 3 Γ 108 ms-1). Electromagnetic radiation is the combination of
electric & magnetic fields which are perpendicular to each other and also
perpendicular to direction of propagation ( Fig. 1).
Thus electromagnetic radiation can be considered as a simple harmonic wave
prorogated in space, in a straight line. Electromagnetic radiations are spread over a
range of wavelengths. Visible light, UV light, IR radiations, X-ray,

10. Electromagnetic radiations exhibit dual nature (Wave as well as particle)
some phenomena like reflection of light, refraction of light, interference
of light etc. could be explain only in terms of wave characters where as
other phenomena like blackbody radiations spectrum, photoelectric
effect, Compton effect etc. could not be explain in terms of wave nature.
However, the later phenomena could be explained in terms of particle
nature.
According Planckβs Quantum Theory of Radiation radiant energy emits
or absorbed not continuously (not as continuous wave) but
discontinuously or discretely in the form of small packets or bundles or
discrete unit of waves. Each of this unit is called a quantum (plural
quanta) which can exist independently.
The energy associated with each quantum or photon (in case of light) is
proportional to the frequency (Ξ½) of emitted radiation,
i.e. E Ξ± Ξ½ or E = h Ξ½29-August -20 Dr. Yogita Sahebrao Thakare
11. General characteristics of electromagnetic radiations:
1. All the electromagnetic radiations are associated with oscillating
electrical and magnetic vectors at right angle to each other and
also right angle to the direction of propagation.
2. All the electromagnetic radiations have the same speed in vacuum.
They travels in vacuum with speed of light.
3. Energy can be transmitted through space by electromagnetic
radiations.
4. Different types of electromagnetic radiations differ from one
another in their wavelength.
5. Since velocity of all types of electromagnetic radiations is constant,
the grater the frequency of radiations smaller is its wave length.
6. A electromagnetic radiation is characterized by the nature of its
wave which are characterized by wave length, wave number,
frequency, time period, amplitude wave front and velocity
29-August -20 Dr. Yogita Sahebrao Thakare
12. Parameters of EMR : Electromagnetic radiation can be characterized in terms
of following parameters-
I) Wavelength : Distance between two successive crests (maxima) or
troughs (minima) in an electromagnetic wave is defined as wavelength.
It is denoted by the Greek letter Lambda (Ξ»).
Units of Wavelength
nm (nanometer), Β΅m (micrometer), mm (millimeter), cm(centimeter) or m
(meter), Ao (Angstron)
1 nm = 10-9m, 1 Β΅m = 10-6m, 1 mm = 10-3m,
1 cm = 10-2m, 1 Ao = 10 -8 cm 1=10-10 m
II) Frequency : The number of waves passing through a given point in unit
time is called as the frequency of radiation.
It is denoted by the Greek letter Ξ½ (nu) and has a unit of reciprocal time.
It is generally expressed in cycles per second or in Hertz or kilocycles per
second or megacycles per second.
1 Hz = cycle / second or S-1
1 MHz = 103 KHz = 106 Hz

13. III) Wave number :- It is defined as the number of waves per unit length and it is
denoted by Ξ½ (nu bar). In spectroscopy, wave number is usually expressed in terms of

IV) Velocity: - The distance travelled by the wave in one second is called the velocity
of the wave. It is denoted by C and expressed as centimeter per second (cm/s) or
meter per second (m/s).
The product of wavelength and frequency
gives the velocity of the wave
i.e. C = Ξ½. ο¬

But for velocity in air C=V

radiation is given by
E = h Ξ½ = h C /ο¬ = h CΞ½ (It is called as energy per

h = planck`s constant (h= 6.62 Γ 10-34 JS),
