What are the selection rules for vibrational-rotational transitions? |
|
Answer» Hey mate Both the VIBRATIONAL and rotational quantum NUMBERS must change. The TRANSITION : (Q-branch) is forbidden. The energy change of ROTATION can be either subtracted from or added to the energy change of vibration, giving the P- and R- branches of the SPECTRUM, respectively. Hope this satisfies you |
