Hypothesis: Photochromism shows different absorption spectra because of different materials.
Objectives:
Introduction: This experiment is set to promote understanding on concepts of light absorption, fluorescence, and photochromism. By implementing the photochemistry experiments in this plan, students can build a bridge between the application and theory of photochromism.
Objectives:
- Understanding the theory of light absorption
- Understanding the theory of fluorescence
- Understanding the theory of photochromism
- Validating light absorption, photochromism from the spiropyran molecules
- Understanding the application of photochromism
