1. Simple molecular models can actually work quite well in understanding electronic spectra. We can also use a simple model as the basis for tackling a more complicated situation. Buckminsterfullerene (Coo) is a large, spherical molecule. It consists of 60 C atoms in a spherical arrangement; the structure looks identical to a traditional soccer ball, with the C atoms at the vertices. Each C atom is bonded to 3 other atoms. The entire bonding network is aromatic, forming a single conjugated a system. It has electronic absorption bands at 404 and 328 nm. Given these results, estimate the radius of a Coo molecule. Clearly state any assumptions in your analysis.
