Nitrogen molecules are made of two nitrogen atoms with atomic weight of 14 each. Water molecules are made of one oxygen of 16 atomic mass units and two hydrogens of 1 atomic mass unit each. If you have one gram of each substance in vapor form, at high enough temperature that all molecular vibration and rotation modes are accessible, and the two substances are at the same temperature, what is the ratio of the total energy content of the nitrogen to that of the water?

Most of the mass of an atom is in its nucleus. Model the mass distribution in a diatomic molecule as two spheres of uniform density, each of radius 2.00 x 10-15 m and mass 1.00 x 10-26 kg, located at points along the y axis as in 42.5a, and separated by 2.00 x 10-10 m. Rotation about the axis joining the nuclei in the diatomic molecule is ordinarily ignored because the first excited state would have an energy that is too high to access. To see why, calculate the ratio of the energy of the first excited state for rotation about the y axis to the energy of the first excited state for rotation about the x axis.
Problem 1. For the system of N spins (see the lecture notes), with energy e separating individual spin-down states from spin-up states, express the total internal energy U(T) of the system via its temperature T in equilibrium. Problem 2. For the same system of N spins, express its entropy S(T) via temperature T in equilibrium.
One description of the potential energy of a diatomic molecule is given by the Lennard–Jones potential, U = (A)/(r12) - (B)/(r6)where A and B are constants and r is the separation distance between the atoms. For the H2 molecule, take A = 0.124 x 10-120 eV ⋅ m12 and B = 1.488 x 10-60 eV ⋅ m6. Find (a) the separation distance r0 at which the energy of the molecule is a minimum and (b) the energy E required to break up theH2 molecule.

In this and following questions, we develop a model for spontaneous emission of a photon by a diatomic molecule AB (a model molecule), which rotates and vibrates. In intermediate calculations, atomic units (a.u.) will be used: unit of mass = the mass of electron, unit of charge is the proton charge e, (e is a positive constant so that the charge of electron is -e). The initial state of the molecule is an excited rotational (1=1) and excited vibrational state (v=1). We consider a molecule with the reduced mass µ = 10,000 a.u. (it is similar to the mass of CO). After emitting a photon, the molecule will go to the 1=0, v=0 state. The first question is about the model potential of the molecule. It is represented by a potential of the form: V(r) = C6 p12 C12 p6 " where r is the distance between A and B in the molecule, C6 and C12 are positive constants (C6 =2 and C₁2-1). This potential has a well meaning that the molecule is bound. The first thing to do is find vibrational states of the…
