The nuclie 74W ¹42 has first excited state 2* at energy 0.1 Me V above the ground state. Estimate the energies of the lowest lying 4* and 6* rotational states of this nucleus.
You are working on determining the angle that separates two hybridized orbitals. In the process of determining the coefficients in front of the various atomic orbitals, you align the first one along the z-axis and the second in the x/z-plane (so o = 0). The second hybridized orbital was determined to be: W2 = R1s + R2p, sin 0 + R2p, cos 0 Determine the angle, 0, in degrees to one decimal place (XX.X) that separates these two orbitals. Assume that the angle will be between 0 and 90 degrees.
In a deuterium nucleus, the proton and neutron spins can be either parallel or antiparallel. What are the possible values of the total spin of the deuterium nucleus? (It is not necessary to consider any orbital angular momentum.) The magnetic dipole moment of the deuterium nucleus is measured to be nonzero. Which of the possible spins is eliminated by this measured value?
