Books on reserve, especially Hollas. III. Problem Set #6, due April 1, 2005. (Hand in Problems #3, 5, and 10). 1. ADP, Prob. 16.22. 2. ADP, Prob. 16.7. 3. Calculate the ratio of the number NJ of molecules in a sample of HCl at (a) 300º K and (b) 1000º K having rotational quantum numbers of J = 5 and J = 0. (c) Calculate the values of J at the maximum NJ at these temperatures. (d) From this information, construct relative intensities of the lines in the spectrum described in Problem 2. 4. ADP, Prob. 16.4. 5. In the language of polyatomic molecules, NH3 is a symmetric top, with the rotational energies E rot BJ (J 1) (B C) K 2 Here, J is the rotational quantum number, and K is the “projection” quantum number, giving information about the projection of J on the “top” axis, the C3 axis of NH3. Draw the resulting energy level diagram for all allowed K states up to J = 2, using B = 9.4443 and C = 6.196 cm-1. What transitions are allowed in the pure rotational spectrum (cf., Problem 4)? 2 6. If we expand the electronic (or potential) energy of a diatomic molecule V(R) in a power series about R = Re, we obtain 1 d 2V dV V(R ) V(R e ) ( R R ) 2 (R R e ) 2 e 2 dR R e dR R e 1 d 3V 3 (R R e )3 6 dR R e (a) Show that the inclusion of only the first three terms gives rise to a potential function that is a simple parabola (harmonic oscillator approximation) with d2V k 2 , and leads to the selection rule for vibrational transitions Δv= 1. dR R e (b) Show that the inclusion of higher order terms in the expansion leads to a breakdown of this selection rule. 7. ADP, Exer. 16.21a. 8. ADP, Exer. 16.23a. 9. ADP, Exer. 16.25a and b. 10. SO2, a bent molecule, has fundamental vibrations at ν1 =1151, ν1 =518, and ν1 =1362 cm-1. Sketch the vibrational energy level diagram for this molecule, denoting the levels by their vibrational quantum numbers (ν1, ν2, ν3). What is the total zero point energy? Draw approximate pictures of the normal modes ν1, ν2, and ν3, and indicate which are active as infrared fundamentals and which are active as Raman fundamentals. Show these transitions on the energy level diagram.
