Answer:
1. The dye that absorbs at 530 nm.
Explanation:
The dye will absorb light to promote the transition of an electron from the HOMO to the LUMO orbital.
The higher the gap, the higher the energy of transition. The energy can be calculated by E = hc/λ, in which h and c are constants and λ is the wavelength.
The equation shows that the higher the energy, the higher the gap and the lower the wavelength.
Therefore, the dye with absorption at 530 nm has the higher HOMO-LUMO gap.
Answer:
Its pH value increases.
Explanation:
pH is the measure of alkalinity or acidity of a compound.
pH = - log [H+]
and pH + pOH = 14
where pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution, given by -log[OH-]
As a solution gets more basic that is higher [OH-], the pH increases, and on the other hand, as the pH of a solution decreases by one pH unit, the concentration of H+ increases by ten times.
