In this question, we will consider the vibration of the diatomic molecule, H2, found in an eigenstate whose wave function is 1/4 1 p(x) V48 T /ku/ħ. k is the force constant and u is the reduced mass. The vibrational frequency of H2 is 4401 cm-'. а) How many nodes are present in (x)? b) What is the quantum number that characterizes (x)? c) Calculate the vibrational energy of the H2 molecule when it is described by the eigenfunction p(x).
