For a certain diatomic molecule, the lowest-energy photon in the vibrational spectrum is 0.17 eV.What is the energy of a photon emitted in a transition from the 5th exited vibrational energy level to the 2nd exited vibrational energy level, assuming no change in the rotational energy?
When an OH molecule undergoes a transition from the n = 0 to the n = 1 vibrational level, its internal vibrational energy increases by 0.463 eV. Calculate the frequency of vibration and the force constant for the interatomic force. (The mass of an oxygen atom is 2.66 * 10-26 kg, and the mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.67 * 10-27 kg.)
Consider a CO molecule that is initially in the ground state of n = 0, l = 0. If the energy of a vibrational transition from the n = 0 state to the n = 1 state in CO could instead be absorbed in a rotational transition, what would be the value of l for the final state?
