A linear molecule may rotate about two axes. If the molecule consists of N atoms, then there are 3N- 5 vibrational modes. Use the equipartition theorem to estimate the total contribution to the molar internal energy from translation, vibration, and rotation for (a) carbon dioxide, CO2, and (b) dibromoethyne, C2Br2, at 2000 K. In contrast, a nonlinear molecule may rotate about three axes and has 3N- 6 vibrational modes. Estimate the total contribution to the molar in ternal energy from translation, vibration, and rotation for (c) nitrogen dioxide, NO2, and (d) tetrabromoethene, C2Br4,at 2000 K. In each case, first assume that all vibrations are active; then assume that none is.

A certain atom has a 4-fold degenerate ground level, a 3-fold degenerate electronically excited level at 4000 cm-1, and a 4-fold degenerate level at 5500 cm-1.Part 1: Calculate the electronic partition function at 1900 K.Ans = __________ Part 2: Now calculate the electronic contribution to the molar internal energy at this same temperature. Ans = ________ kJ/molFor comparison purposes, it is instructive to consider that the translational contribution to the molar internal energy at this same temperature would be (3/2)RT or 23.69 kJ/mol. So it shows that even at these elevated temperatures, the electronic contribution is fairly small because excited electronic states are populated much less than excited translational states.
Calculate the vibrational, rotational, and translational contributions to the constant volume heat capacity (Cv) for 14N2 at 298 K.
