(d) The first-order rate constants for the fluorescence and phosphorescence of molecule X are 4.5 x 107 s' and 0.50 s', respectively. Briefly explain the large order of magnitude difference in the rate constant values. (c) Explain how long (in s) it takes for 1.0% of fluorescence and phosphorescence to occur following termination of excitation.
