Chapter 14, Problem 14.19E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The moment of inertia for acetylene, HCCH molecule is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Rigid rotor is a mechanical model of a 3-dimensional rigid object. To locate such an object in space, it requires three coordinates. In a rotation system, the energy is measured by the equation, EJ=BJ(J+1). B is known as rotational constant, which is related to the reduced mass and bond length.

A molecule in a liquid undergoes about 1.0 × 1013 collisions in each second. Suppose that (i) every collision is effective in deactivating the molecule vibrationally and (ii) that one collision in 100 is effective. Calculate the width (in cm−1) of vibrational transitions in the molecule.
Consider the rotational spectrum of a linear molecule at 298 K with a moment of inertia of 1.23×10−461.23\times10^{-46}1.23×10−46 kg m2 . (a) What is the frequency for the transition from J = 2 to J = 3?   (b) What is the most populated rotational level for this molecule?
