Chapter 42, Problem 42.4(choose chapter or problem)
Part (a) of 42.39 gives an equation for the number of diatomic molecules in the lth rotational level to the number in the ground-state rotational level. (a) Derive an expression for the value of l for which this ratio is the largest. (b) For the CO molecule at T = 300 K, for what value of l is this ratio a maximum? (The moment of inertia of the CO molecule is given in Example 42.2.)
