I want to know the answer to the following question:
What state are the protons in when in the orthohydrogen form?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The equilibrium ratio of orthohydrogen to parahydrogen depends on temperature, but because the ortho form is an excited state and has a higher energy than the para form, it is unstable and cannot be purified.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
