← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a molecule absorbs resonant microwave radiation?
A)Electronic transition decreases molecular stability
B)Molecular rotational energy changes✓
C)Orbital hybridization stops immediately
D)Vibrational transitions affect bond angles
💡 Explanation
Resonant microwave radiation causes changes in the rotational energy because molecules absorb photons undergoing rotational transitions, therefore altering the molecular dipole, rather than the electronic transitions or vibrations involving higher energy changes.
