The bond length of the N2, molecule is 0.11 nm, and its effective spring constant is 2.3 × 103 N/m. (a) From the size of the energy jumps for rotation and vibration, determine whether either of these modes of energy storage should be active at 300 K. (b) According to the equipartition theorem, the heat capacity of a diatomic molecule storing energy in rotations but not vibrations should be R (3 translational 4- 2 rotational degrees of freedom), If it is also storing energy in vibrations, it should be R (adding 2 vibrational degrees). Nitrogen's molar heat capacity is 20.8 J/mol • K at 300 K. Does this agree with your findings in part (a)?
