A system containing a single particle in a rigid container at temperature 100 K has a translational partition function of Ztrans = 1.5 × 1012.
(a) If the mass of the particle is doubled, what is the new value for ztrans? Report your answer in scientific notation (in Blackboard, 1.23 x
1045 is written 1.23E45).
A certain atom has a nondegenerate ground level, a doubly degenerate level at 595 cm¹ and a
quadruple degenerate level at 1060 cm-1. Calculate the electronic contribution to the molar internal energy
at 855K for a sample composed of these atoms. Hint: You will need to calculate the molecular partition first.
Hint2: Remember that ße = hcv/kBT.
1.
A K* and a CI- ion are separated by 0.52 nm. Find the Coulomb
component of the binding energy at that distance. Give your
answer in electron-volts. (Please include the appropriate sign.) A
positive binding energy would mean the ions are unbound and a
negative binding energy means they are bound.
Note: For this homework problem, round your answer to 2
decimal places.
