Which outcome occurs when a photon's energy matches the energy gap between two hybrid atomic orbitals?

💡 Explanation

When a photon's energy matches the energy gap between orbitals, resonant absorption occurs because this enables the electron to transition to a higher energy level as per quantum mechanics rules, resulting in excitation. Therefore excitation results, rather than alterations in fluorescence, temperature or interference that each result from alternative light and matter interactions.
