?Carbon monoxide binds strongly to the \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) ion of the haem (heme) group

Chapter 7, Problem P7E.7

(choose chapter or problem)

Carbon monoxide binds strongly to the \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) ion of the haem (heme) group of the protein myoglobin. Estimate the vibrational frequency of CO bound to myoglobin by using the data in Problem P7E.6 and by making the following assumptions: the atom that binds to the haem group is immobilized, the protein is infinitely more massive than either the C or O atom, the C atom binds to the \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) ion, and binding of CO to the protein does not alter the force constant of the CO bond.
