QUESTION:

The hydrogen iodide (HI) molecule has equilibrium separation  and vibrational frequency \(6.93 \times 10^{13} \mathrm{~Hz}\). The mass of a hydrogen atom is \(1.67 \times 10^{-77} \mathrm{~kg}\), and the mass of an iodine atom is \(2.11 \times 10^{-25} k g\). (a) Calculate the moment of inertia of HI about a perpendicular axis through its center of mass.
(b) Calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted in each of the following vibration-rotation transitions:

(i) \(n=1, I=1 \rightarrow n=0, I=0\)

(ii) \(n=1, I=2 \rightarrow n=0, I=1\)

(iii) \(n=2 I=2 \rightarrow n=1, I=3\)

Equation transcription:

Text transcription:

6.93 times 10^{13}{~Hz}

1.67 times 10^{-77}{~kg}

2.11 times 10^{-25} k g

n=1, I=1 rightarrow n=0, I=0

n=1, I=2 rightarrow n=0, I=1

n=2 I=2 rightarrow n=1, I=3
