← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a molecule absorbs a photon of resonant frequency?
A)Electron undergoes orbital hybridization transition✓
B)Photon undergoes quantum entanglement excitation
C)Orbital probability density is instantaneously increased
D)Vibrational energy becomes quickly dampened
💡 Explanation
The absorption of a resonant photon causes orbital hybridization, because electron transitions excite molecule electronic states. Therefore, orbital hybridization is induced, rather than simply vibrational excitation or density shifts, which are less probable at resonance.
