The Sound of Molecules


 


1. The activity of molecules is audible / inaudible

2. Molecules can / can't rotate.

3. Chemists use spectroscopy to analyse the shape / structure of molecules.

4. The NMR aligns / disrupts all the atoms in a molecule. 

5. Light aligns / disrupts all the atoms in a molecule. 

6. An amplitude versus time waveform can represent molecular / sonic / both sonic and molecular activity.

7. Chemists can / can't create molecules from scratch.

8. We can listen to the sounds of molecules in detail if we zoom in / zoom out.

9. As the sound decays / increases we can hear nuances.

10. After the magnetic field / molecular activity fades we can hear the sound of the molecular activity / magnetic field.

11. We can hear the buzz of electrons orbiting the nucleus as we get closer / further away from the molecule.

12. Chemists are generally concerned with individual / collections of molecules.

13. We 'zoom in' to sound waves my slowing them down / speeding them up.

14. As molecules warm up the sounds condense / expand.

15. At the molecular level a bond broken is always replaced by a weaker / stronger bond.
