Spectroscopy
Rotational energy levels are quantized states of rotational motion that a molecule can occupy, determined by its moment of inertia and angular momentum. These levels are critical for understanding molecular rotations and how they interact with electromagnetic radiation, particularly in spectroscopic techniques. The transitions between these energy levels correspond to the absorption or emission of photons, leading to the characteristic spectra observed in molecular spectroscopy.
congrats on reading the definition of Rotational Energy Levels. now let's actually learn it.
