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…arrow_forward
- Consider two immiscible liquids such as water and oil. If a spherical oil molecule of radius r is taken out of the oil phase and placed in the water phase, the unfavorable energy of this transfer is proportional to the area of the solute (oil) molecule newly exposed to the solvent (water) multiplied by the interfacial energy, i, of the oil-water interface. The interfacial energy of the bulk cyclohexane-water interface is i = 50 mJ m-2, and the radius of a cyclohexane molecule is 0.28 nm. Using Boltzmann distribution, estimate the solubility of cyclohexane in water at 25 C in units of mol L-1.The concentration of water in water phase is 55.5 mol L-1.arrow_forwardFind A⃗ ⋅(−B⃗ )A→⋅(−B→).

In statistical mechanics, thermal energy is the random motion of the microscopic world. The average kinetic or potential energy of each degree of freedom of the microscopic world therefore depends on the temperature. If heat is added, molecules increase their translational and rotational speeds, and the atoms constituting the molecules vibrate with larger amplitude about their equilibrium positions. It is a fact of nature that the energy of each degree of freedom is determined solely by the temperature. The Equipartition Theorem states this quantitatively: The average energy associated with each degree of freedom in a system at absolute temperature T is (1/2)k³T, where KB = : 1.38 × 10-2³ J/K is Boltzmann's constant. A "degree of freedom" corresponds to any dynamical variable that appears quadratically in the energy. For instance, (1/2)mv² is the kinetic energy of a…arrow_forward
