    Which phenomenon deals with the scattering of light by molecules of a medium when they are excited to vibrational energy

    levels?

    This questions was previously asked in
    SSC CGL 24th August 2021 Shift-3

    Rayleigh Effect

    Incorrect Answer

    Huygens Effect

    Incorrect Answer

    Raman Effect

    Correct Answer

    Maxwell Effect

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    - Raman Effect: ?? This option is correct. When light passes through a medium, a small fraction is scattered. This scattered light can undergo a change in wavelength due to energy being transferred to or from vibrational energy levels of the molecules.

    - Rayleigh Effect: It involves the scattering of light by particles much smaller than the wavelength of light, without any change in wavelength. It explains why the sky is blue.

    - Huygens Effect: Not a commonly recognized term related to light scattering. Huygens is known for the Huygens' Principle related to wave propagation.

    - Maxwell Effect: More associated with electromagnetic theory, not specifically with vibrational energy levels or light scattering.
