Consider the 'H35CI molecule. Assume that the vibrational motion of the molecule can be modeled as a harmonic oscillator with a force constant 480 N/m. The molecule is originally in its N3D4 excited vibrational state and transitions to the ground vibrational state, emitting a photon. Now consider an identical molecule, but where the hydrogen is replaced by Tritium (H). If this new molecule undergoes the same transition as 'H35CI, calculate the magnitude of the energy difference between the energies of the emitted photons. Enter your final answer of the energy difference in eV (enter your final answer as a positive number).
