Explanation
The key feature Of Bohr's theory Of spectrum Of hydrogen atom is the quantization Of angular momentum when an electron is revolving around a proton. We will extend this to a general rotational motion to find quantized rotational energy Of a diatomic molecule assuming it to be rigid. The rule to be applied is Bohr's quantization condition.A diatomic molecule has moment Of inertia I. By Bohr's quantization condition its rotational energy in the nth level (n=0 is not allowed) is
Number of emission states are:
4to3
4to2
4to1
3to2
3to1
2to1
So, number of emission states are 6.
Energy=1erg
hcλ=1erg
1λ=wave number
1λ=1hc
u=1hc
u=16.626×10−27×3×1010
u=10019.878×1015=5.03×1015cm−1
