Question
Chapter 15, Problem 15.41E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The form for the complete transition moment in the rovibronic spectrum is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
An electronic state of energy has its own vibrational states. The energy between the electronic states is large followed by vibrational states and then rotational states. During an electronic transition, electron from ground state moves straight to the excited state keeping the internuclear distance constant. This is known as the Franck-Condon principle.

We know how to determine the total number of vibrational modes for a molecule with a given number of atoms. If the stretching frequencies you identified are the only ones appearing in the diagnostic region, and each bond contributes one stretching mode, how many additional vibrational modes must be represented in the overlapping signals in the fingerprint region for each of these molecules?
