12D.15 At low resolution, the strongest absorption band in the infrared absorption spectrum of ¹2C160 is centred at 2150 cm-¹. Upon closer examination at higher resolution, this band is observed to be split into two sets of closely spaced peaks, one on each side of the centre of the spectrum at 2143.26 cm-¹. The separation between the peaks immediately to the right and left of the centre is 7.655 cm-¹. Make the harmonic oscillator and rigid rotor approximations and calculate from these data: (a) the vibrational wavenumber of a CO molecule, (b) its molar zero-point vibrational energy, (c) the force constant of the CO bond, (d) the rotational constant B, and (e) the bond length of CO.

A peak at a wavenumber of 1656 cm-1 is observed for caffeine. Calculate the wavelength and frequency of this radiation and the energy change due to this absorption.
Why do aldehydes, esters, and amides all have a strong absorption in the 1630-1780 cm1 region of their IR spectra? A) The bond between H and the sp³-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates in this energy range. B) Each of these functional groups has at least two resonance structures, and the different vibrations of the resonance structures give off energy in this region. C) The bond between O and the sp²-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates at a frequency in this energy range. D) Light at this wavenumber causes the average C to O bond length to increase which causes more of this light to be transmitted. E) An electron in the bond of these functional groups gets excited to the * orbital.
