The moment of inertia of water molecule about an axis bisecting the HOH angle is1.91x10-47 kg m2. Its minimum angular momentum about that axis (other than zero) is ℏ. Inclassical terms, how many revolutions per second do the hydrogen atoms make about the axiswhen in that state? Calculate the rotational constant (cm-1) and bond length of H2O. Does the bondlength seem reasonable?
