Which consequence results when a photosensitive molecule degrades, hindering electron delocalization?

💡 Explanation

Reduced chromophore degradation impairs π-system integrity, disrupting the original *molecular orbital configuration*, because electron delocalization decreases. Therefore chromophore light absorption efficiency declines, rather than other radiative or energy transfer processes becoming dominant under compromised conditions.
