UV Visible Spectroscopy

Spectroscopy refers to the absorption or emission of light or other radiations by matter. When a substance or chemical absorbs light or radiation, they reach an excited state followed by de-excitation or emission of the light or radiation forming distinct spectra. UV-visible spectroscopy or ultraviolet-visible refers to the absorption and emission in the ultraviolet and visible regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Pairs of unshared electrons can be pushed. One Lewis structure for the methoxy-methyl cation is . The structure contains a pair of pushable electrons, namely, the unshared electrons on the atom. The structure also contains a positively charged atom that can act as a . A second resonance structure can be generated by pushing the unshared electrons to the receptor. Thus, It is not possible to push electrons toward the other carbon, because it is not a receptor. If you tried to push electrons to this carbon, you would generate a pentavalent carbon, which is not possible.
The two molecules in the pictrue behave very differently in reactions. Though they are both neutral, it is possible to draw resonance structures to illustrate which atoms will have partial charges.

Draw one resonance structure for each molecule below with only one positive and one negative charge in the left box. In the box to the right draw out the original structure with its partial charges, which can be determined from the resonance structures.
