Chapter 18, Problem 18.57E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The vibrational partition function at different temperatures, starting at zero kelvins and going to
Concept introduction:
A molecule is made up of atoms that are bonded together by covalent bonds. These bonds do a to and fro moment to vibrate. This vibration of the molecule contributes to the overall partition function of the system. The vibrational partition function of the diatomic molecule at high temperature is represented as,
