Chapter 14, Problem 14.51E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The force constant $k$ for the molecule ${}^{\text{1}}{\text{H}}^{\text{35}}\text{Cl}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The vibrational frequency for any molecule is related to its force constant and reduced mass of molecule. The vibrational frequency is directly proportional to the force constant of the molecule and inversely proportional to the reduced mass of the molecule.
