I choose this article because it shows how electrons rearrange during chemical reactions. The scientist that does this project uses a N2O4(Dinitrogen tetraoxide) and shot two lasers through it. The first laser induced a very large oscillations within the molecule. The second laser produce an X-ray, which was used to map the electrons energy level of the molecule and most importantly, to understand how these electron energy levels rearrange as the molecule changes shape. This relates to chemical reactions and which that was something that we have talked about in the trimester.
