Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.40E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The approximate centrifugal distortion constant for
Concept introduction:
An electronic state of energy has its own vibrational states. The energy between the electronic states is large followed by vibrational states and then rotational states. During an electronic transition, electron from ground state moves straight to the excited state keeping the internuclear distance constant.

Estimate the centrifugal distortion constant for 1H127I, for which ᷉ B = 6.511 cm−1 and ᷉v = 2308 cm−1. By what factor would the constant change when 2H is substituted for 1H?
The vibrational wavenumber of the oxygen molecule in its electronic ground state is 1580 cm−1, whereas that in the excited state (B 3Σu−), to which there is an allowed electronic transition, is 700 cm−1. Given that the separation in energy between the minima in their respective potential energy curves of these two electronic states is 6.175 eV, what is the wavenumber of the lowest energy transition in the band of transitions originating from the v = 0 vibrational state of the electronic ground state to this excited state? Ignore any rotational structure or anharmonicity.
