The key idea in the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation (BOA) is that
the electronic energy depends on the geometry. Explain this, and
include a drawing of how the electronic energy (energy of
) depends on a geometry coordinate, R. Example, how does the
electronic energy of O2 depend on the O-O bond
length?

Draw an energy-level diagram for the valence molecular orbitals of CO. Include the relevant atomic orbitals in your diagram. Clearly label each molecular orbital (e.gs2s, p2p, etc.) and fill in the appropriate number of electrons. Use the same energy order as the neutral O2 molecule.b) Is CO paramagnetic or diamagnetic? What is the bond order of CO? c) Draw a Lewis structure for CO. Does this match the predicted bond order? d) CO can react withOH– to form the formate...
4. Anharmonic potential (15 points) The adjacent figure shows the experimentally determined potential energy curve of the electronic ground state of"Br2, with a few of the vibrational levels. The vibrational transitions are reasonably well described by a harmonic oscillator model, but much more accurately by including a small anharmonic correction term: En/hcVe(n 1/2) - vexe(n + 1/2)2. From fits to experimental data, the values of the constants are 325.32 cm and exe 1.08 cm .5 10 15 (a) Calculate the...
Coefficient of Restitution = 0 Objectives: Partially elastic collisions are defined by the coefficient of restitution between the two objects. In this experiment you will a. Propose a procedure to measure the coefficient of restitution b. Determine the coefficient of restitution for a racquet ball c. Determine whether the coefficient of restitution depends on velocity Introduction An elastic collision is one in which mechanical energy is conserved. A perfectly inelastic collision is one in which some of the mechanical energy...
ELECTRONIC TIMING, INC. Electronic Timing, Inc. (ETI), is a small company founded 15 years ago by electronics engineers Tom Miller and Jessica Kerr. ETI manufactures integrated circuits to capitalize on the complex mixed-signal design technology and has recently entered the market for frequency timing generators, or silicon timing devices, which provide the timing signals or "clocks” necessary to synchronize electronic systems. Its clock products originally were used in PC video graphics applications, but the market has subsequently expanded to include...
8.4 The Two-Dimensional Central-Force Problem The 2D harmonic oscillator is a 2D central force problem (as discussed in TZD Many physical systems involve a particle that moves under the influence of a central force; that is, a force that always points exactly toward, or away from, a force center O. In classical mechanics a famous example of a central force is the force of the sun on a planet. In atomic physics the most obvious example is the hydrogen atom,...
Conch Republic Electronics is a midsized electronics manufacturer located in Key West, Florida. The company president is Shelley Couts, who inherited the company. When it was founded over 70 years ago, the company originally repaired radios and other household appliances. The company is entirely equity financed, with 9 million shares of common stock outstanding. The stock currently trades at $42.50 per share. Over the years, the company expanded into manufacturing and is nowa reputable manufacturer of various electronic items. Jay...
