Question 8. [14 marks] (a) Explain how UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectrophotometers
differ using fully labelled block diagrams. (10 marks) What is the difference between emission
and excitation spectra? Which resembles absorption spectra, and why? (4 marks) (b)
Solution
a) UV-visible refers to absorption spectroscopy in the UV and visible portion of the
electromagnetic spectrum. When a molecule (typically starting out in a singlet ground state)
absorbs a photon it will become an excited state molecule. Following quantum mechanical
selection rules, the molecule will be in a singlet excited state.
Fluorescence is one of many relaxation processes by which a molecule in the excited state can
relax back down to the ground state. In fluorescence, a molecule in the lowest vibrational level of
of a singlet excited state emits a photon to return to the ground singlet state.
Most commonly molecules return to the ground state by a mechanism referred to as internal
conversion and energy is conserved by heat being absorbed by the surroundings. Other relaxation
mechanisms include phosphorescence, quenching by either an electron transfer or fluorescence
energy transfer. An excited state molecule can also undergo photo-decomposition or
photochemistry.
The bottom line is that a molecule in the excited state is there for a limited amount of time.
Fluorescence is but one mechanism to depopulate the excited state.
b) The excitation spectrum shows at what wavelengths the solution uses to produce its
fluorescence.
The emission spectrum shows what wavelengths are given off from the solution.
Since the excitation spectrum has the same peaks as the absorbency spectrum, so excitation
spectra resembles absorption spectra.

Question 8- -14 marks- (a) Explain how UV-vis absorption and fluoresce.docx

  • 1. Question 8. [14 marks] (a) Explain how UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectrophotometers differ using fully labelled block diagrams. (10 marks) What is the difference between emission and excitation spectra? Which resembles absorption spectra, and why? (4 marks) (b) Solution a) UV-visible refers to absorption spectroscopy in the UV and visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. When a molecule (typically starting out in a singlet ground state) absorbs a photon it will become an excited state molecule. Following quantum mechanical selection rules, the molecule will be in a singlet excited state. Fluorescence is one of many relaxation processes by which a molecule in the excited state can relax back down to the ground state. In fluorescence, a molecule in the lowest vibrational level of of a singlet excited state emits a photon to return to the ground singlet state. Most commonly molecules return to the ground state by a mechanism referred to as internal conversion and energy is conserved by heat being absorbed by the surroundings. Other relaxation mechanisms include phosphorescence, quenching by either an electron transfer or fluorescence energy transfer. An excited state molecule can also undergo photo-decomposition or photochemistry. The bottom line is that a molecule in the excited state is there for a limited amount of time. Fluorescence is but one mechanism to depopulate the excited state. b) The excitation spectrum shows at what wavelengths the solution uses to produce its fluorescence. The emission spectrum shows what wavelengths are given off from the solution. Since the excitation spectrum has the same peaks as the absorbency spectrum, so excitation spectra resembles absorption spectra.
