HW3.P5B Zeaxanthin Particle in a Box Started: Sep 11 at 9:41am Quiz Instructions The particle in a box model is very simple, yet has some predictive capabilities for describing electrons in conjugated systems. Consider zeaxanthin, a prominent pigment in corn. zeaxanthin conjugated system.png Download the following 3D model and inspect it in Avogadro. zeaxanthin.pdb Your goal for the next set of questions is to model the pi electrons within the central conjugated system (marked with the light orange outline) as particles confined within a 1D box. Notably, the questions are asked 1 at a time, to try to keep you on track. Nonetheless, it is important for you to work out the entire problem on paper. This way you will be prepared for reviewing the particle in a box model prior to the exams, and for asking any questions in office hours.

Explanation / Answer

no,absorption of light by object does not explain its color.a color is described by its reflected wavelength.e.g if a ray of light is incident it reflect only red color wavelength and absorb all other wavelenth.than thecolor ofobject will be red
