Short answer (10 pts each)
1)
Draw an energy diagram (the Jablonski Diagram) that illustrates why fluorescent
molecules emit less energetic photons than the photons used for excitation? By
contrasting this energy diagram to the energy diagram for a typical molecule that
does not fluoresce, explain why most fluorescent molecules have rigid, aromatic
structures.
2)
3)
List and describe the different strategies used to insert a sample into the IR beam
of an FT-IR. Why cant a typical cuvette used in UV/VIS applications be used in
conjunction with FT-IR analysis?
4)
The FT-NMR experiment is a pulsed technique? Explain the nature and function
of the pulse.
5)
6)
7)
Explain why atomic absorption and emission lines are so narrow ( 0.01 nm) and
molecular absorption and fluorescence tend to produce broad spectra that spread
over 50-300 nm.

There are no spin-spin splitting between 13C and 1H nuclei in a typical 13C NMR
experiment because
A)
C)
D)
E)
relaxation of the excited 13C nuclei is too short to allow for effective coupling with
protons.
13
C nuclei make up only about 1% of all carbon, which minimizes the interaction
between the nuclei.
13
C nuclei are excited in a 13C NMR experiment.
molecules generally do not contain equivalent carbon atoms.
broadband decoupling is used by continuously pulsing the proton tuning coil.
