However, the molecule we can encounter everyday continuously vibrates and interact with the surrounding causing its bond vector to vary slightly. According to a new spectroscopy analysis, the adjacent bond vectors was found to be
A = 0.82i + 0.99j + 0.84k
B = 1.09i + -1.01j + -0.97k
What is the angle (in degrees) between the bonds based on this new data?

- Most of the mass of an atom is in its nucleus. Model the mass distribution in a diatomic molecule as two spheres of uniform density, each of radius 2.00 x 10-15 m and mass 1.00 x 10-26 kg, located at points along the y axis as in 42.5a, and separated by 2.00 x 10-10 m. Rotation about the axis joining the nuclei in the diatomic molecule is ordinarily ignored because the first excited state would have an energy that is too high to access. To see why, calculate the ratio of the energy of the first excited state for rotation about the y axis to the energy of the first excited state for rotation about the x axis.arrow_forwardA proton, which is the nucleus of a hydrogen atom, can be modeled as a sphere with a diameter of 2.4 fm and a mass of 1.67 10-27 kg.Densities of Some Common Substances at Standard Temperature (0°C) and Pressure (Atmospheric) Substance ρ (kg/m3) Substance ρ (kg/m3) Air 1.29 Iron 7.86 ✕ 103 Air (at 20°C andatmospheric pressure) 1.20 Lead 11.3 ✕ 103 Aluminum 2.70 ✕ 103 Mercury 13.6 ✕ 103 Benzene 0.879 ✕ 103 Nitrogen gas 1.25 Brass 8.4 ✕ 103 Oak 0.710 ✕ 103 Copper 8.92 ✕ 103 Osmium 22.6 ✕ 103 Ethyl alcohol 0.806 ✕ 103 Oxygen gas 1.43 Fresh water 1.00 ✕ 103 Pine 0.373 ✕ 103 Glycerin 1.26 ✕ 103 Platinum 21.4 ✕ 103 Gold 19.3 ✕ 103 Seawater 1.03 ✕ 103 Helium gas 1.79 ✕ 10−1 Silver 10.5 ✕ 103 Hydrogen gas 8.99 ✕ 10−2 Tin 7.30 ✕ 103 Ice 0.917 ✕ 103 Uranium 19.1 ✕ 103 (a) Determine the density of the proton.kg/m3arrow_forwardA = 2 X 1025, B = 4.5 X 10-10, C = 3 X 10-6.
