Suppose that you have a solution containing a substance whose molecules have two quantum states corresponding to different orientations of a certain subgroup of atoms. The energy difference between these two molecular states is ΔE = 0.130 eV. You are running an experiment where no more than 5% percent of the molecules can be in the higher-energy state, or it will cause unacceptable noise. Can you run the experiment at room temperature, or do you need to cool your solution? Decide by determining the percentage of molecules in the higher-energy state.
The percentage of molecules in the higher-energy state is_____ %.
Part A: What is the energy of the system when in its ground state, in units of eV?
