Calculate the percentage difference in the fundamental vibrational wavenumbers of 23Na35Cl and 23Na37Cl on the assumption that their force constants are the same. The mass of 23Na is 22.9898mu.

1.089%

Explanation:

From;

ν =1/2πc(k/meff)^1/2

Where;

ν = wave number

meff = reduced mass or effective mass

k = force constant

c= speed of light

Let

ν =1/2πc (k/meff)^1/2  vibrational wave number for 23Na35 Cl

ν' =1/2πc(k'/m'eff)^1/2 vibrational wave number for 23Na37 Cl

The between the two is obtained from;

ν' - ν /ν  = (k'/m'eff)^1/2 - (k/meff)^1/2 / (k/meff)^1/2

Therefore;

ν' - ν /ν = [meff/m'eff]^1/2 - 1

Substituting values, we have;

ν' - ν /ν = [(22.9898 * 34.9688/22.9898 + 34.9688) * (22.9898 + 36.9651/22.9898 * 36.9651)]^1/2  -1

ν' - ν /ν = -0.01089

percentage difference in the fundamental vibrational wavenumbers of 23Na35Cl and 23Na37Cl;

ν' - ν /ν * 100

|(-0.01089)|  × 100 = 1.089%

in scientific notation, the value of the  speed of light in a vacuum

  will be written as 2.995 * 10^8. when this value is represented in the form of

  a * 10^b, then, a = 2.995 and b = 8.

the value of the speed of light in a vacuum given above can also be rounded up to approximately 300000000. in this case, the scientific notation will be written as 3 *10^8.

a pan containing water is placed in a positio n where it is exposed to a 10 mile per hour wind. the pan contains a uniform depth of 1.27 cm of water, is quite wide, and has a length of 2.44 m in the wind direction. the water in the pan is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c.
