QUESTION:

Spectral Lines from Isotopes. The equilibrium separation for NaCI is 0.2361nm. The mass of a sodium atom is 3.8176×10−20 kg Chlorine has two stable isotopes, 35CI and 37CI, that have different masses but identical chemical properties. The atomic mass of 35CI is 5.8068×10−26 kg, and the atomic mass of 35CI is 6.1384×10−26 kg. (a) Calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted in the I=2→I=1 and I=1→I=0 transitions for Na35CI. (b) Repeat part (a) for Na37CI. What are the differences in the wavelengths for the two isotopes?
