what happens when a proton is absorbed by a molecule? - Answer -it excites an electron
into a higher energy state
-the electron quickly drops to its ground state
-releases the energy as light at a longer wavelength
why does isolated chlorophyll in a tube fluoresce red light, but a leaf doesn't? - Answer in
the leaf, the chlorophyll is coupled to a series of chemical reactions that use the light energy. in
the tube, it emits red light due to a mixture with acetone
