P2D.8 Use the fact that (∂U/∂V)T = a/Vm2for a van der Waals gas (Topic 1C)to show that μCp,m ≈ (2a/RT) − b by using the definition of μ and appropriaterelations between partial derivatives. Hint: Use the approximation pVm ≈ RTwhen it is justifiable to do so.
The intensities of spectroscopic transitions between the vibrational states of a molecule are proportional to the square of the integral ∫ψv′xψvdx over all space. Use the relations between Hermite polynomials given in Table 7E.1 to show that the only permitted transitions are those for which v′ = v ± 1 and evaluate the integral in these cases.
