(20%) Answer the following questions for a general diatomic molecule given that translational and rotational degrees of freedom typically behave classically, but vibrations behave quantum mechanically. 1. (5%) Write an expression for the total (average) energy of a general diatomic molecule 2. (5%) Calculate the contribution from translation and rotation to the molar heat capacity of the Cl₂ gas at 300 K. 3. (5%) Calculate the contribution from vibration to the molar heat capacity of the Cl₂ gas at 300 K, given that Cl₂ has a vibrational wavenumber of 565 cm-¹ 4. (5%) Predict the molar heat capacity of Cl₂ gas at 300 K and compare your result with the experimental molar heat capacity of Cl2, Cv 26 J/(K mol) at 300 K. Discuss your result.
