Solution

The correct option is B Inelastic scattering of light by molecules
Answer is A
It is also possible for the incident photons to interact with the molecules in such a way that energy is either gained or lost so that the scattered photons are shifted in frequency. Such inelastic scattering is called Raman Scattering.
