- The force between two inert gas atoms is often described by a function of the form F = [Ax^−13 + Bx^−7] ex where A and B are positive constants and x is the distance between the atoms. The origin has been placed at the location of one of the atoms, and F is the force on the other atom; ex points from the origin towards the other atom. Answer in terms of A and B. (a) Plot the component of F as a function of x. For which values of x is this an attractive force, and for what values is this a repulsive force? (b) What is the equilibrium separation? (c) What is the work done if the atoms are moved from their equilibrium separation to a very large distance apart? (d) Is this a conservative force? If yes, show it! If no, explain.

Note: 1 eV = 1.6*10-19 J. You can use SI units, but CAPA will also accept these units that will simplify your calculations: [Force] = eV/nm[Energy] = eV[distance] = nm r_eq = 7.6 *10^-1 nm If the distance between the atoms increases from equilibrium by r1 = 0.20 nm, then what is the force from one atom on the other associated with this potential energy? (Enter your answer as postive if they repel each other, and negative if they attract). F_r (r_eq +r_1) = ? The atoms are oscillating back and forth.

- 3) The equation that describes the potential energy stored in the interaction between two atoms in a diatomic molecule is U = A/x12 – B/x6.

A xenon atom (atomic mass = 131.29 u) has a kinetic energy equal to the average translational kinetic energy and is moving straight up. If the atom does not collide with any other atoms or molecules, then how high up would it go before coming to rest? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is constant during the ascent.arrow_forwardMost 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_forward
