SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the impact of vibrations from excited molecules on other particles in a solution. It is established that every vibration represents an excitation relative to the ground state, meaning that non-excited particles can indeed experience vibrations induced by nearby excited molecules. While these non-excited particles may not vibrate with the same intensity, they can replicate the vibrational characteristics of the excited molecules to some extent. The energy transfer from excited molecules to their neighbors is a key mechanism in this process.
