The following are sets of rotational quantum numbers (J,MJ,K). Label each indicated transition as either allowed or forbidden. Hint: Remember the rules for allowed values of the various quatum numbers. a (0,0,0)(1,1,0)b (0,0,0)(1,0,0) c (3,2,1)(3,1,1)d (4,4,1)(2,4,1)
: A space probe was designed to seek carbon monoxide in Saturn’s atmosphere by looking for lines in its rotational spectrum. If the bond length of CO is 112.8 pm, at what wavenumbers (in cm-1) do the first three rotational transitions appear? Carbon is almost all carbon-12, so for this part, you can assume it’s all 12C). What resolution would be required to determine the isotropic ratio of 13C to 12C on Saturn by observing the first three 13CO rotational lines as well? (In other words how far apart, in cm-1, are the rotational transitions of 12CO and 13CO
Is the bond length in 1HCl the same as that in 2HCl? The wavenumbers of the J = 1 ← 0 rotational transitions for 1H35Cl and 2H35Cl are 20.8784 and 10.7840 cm–1, respectively. Accurate atomic masses are 1.007 825mu and 2.0140mu for 1H and 2H, respectively. The mass of 35Cl is 34.968 85mu. Based on this information alone, can you conclude that the bond lengths are the same or different in the two molecules?
