Which outcome is prominent during nitrogen photolysis under cryogenic matrix isolation?

💡 Explanation

The formation of Rydberg molecular states dominates because cryogenic temperatures suppress vibrational relaxation pathways, therefore enabling stabilization of high-energy Rydberg states formed during photolysis, rather than immediate dissociation or collisional quenching in higher temperature environments.
