Which outcome occurs when a molecule with overlapping atomic orbitals absorbs resonant-frequency photons?

💡 Explanation

Resonant photons cause increased vibrational mode amplitude because energy is transferred during **photon absorption**. This increases kinetic energy, therefore the vibrations increase, rather than a temperature decrease or an electronic orbital transition.
