#4. (30 pts) Beta-carotene has the sort of delocalization that we've just been looking at with 11 carbon- carbon double bonds conjugated together. The diagram shows the structure of beta-carotene with the alternating double and single bonds shown in red. a. Calculate the energy of electrons confined in the beta-carotene. b. Compare your calculation with the absorption spectrum below. c. Explain the color of carrot. CH CH, CH Stubny CH CH CH, CH, CH B-carotene L=1.85 nm Anne 06 cel 24 011 00 c 700 Se CO wavelength (m)
