There is a straightforward procedure to find linear combinations of atomic orbitals that are bases for the irreducible representations. It involves a quantity called a *generating operator*, whose formula we give without proof. The generating operator for the *j*th irreducible representation is $$\hat{P}_j = \frac{d_...

These results tell us that the four $2p_z$ orbitals belong to the reducible representation $$\begin{array}{c|ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc$$ We can even write $\Gamma$ without writing out all the matrices. Note that there is a 1 on a diagonal in a representation if the $2p_z$ orbital is unchanged, a -1 ...

The quantum-mechanical properties of a diatomic harmonic oscillator were described in Section 5–4. Recall that the allowed energies of a harmonic oscillator are given by $$E_v = (v + \frac{1}{2})hv$$ $v = 0, 1, 2, \dots$ (13.2) where $$\nu = \frac{1}{2\pi} \left(\frac{k}{\mu}\right)^{1/2} \tag{13.3}$$ is the f...

When a molecule absorbs infrared radiation, the vibrational transition is accompanied by a rotational transition. The selection rules for absorption of infrared radiation in the rigid rotator-harmonic oscillator approximation are $$\Delta v = +1$$ (absorption) (13.11) $\Delta J = \pm 1$ For the case $\Delta J = ...

The energies of a rigid rotator-harmonic oscillator are given by (Equation 13.10) $$\tilde{E}_{v,J} = G(v) + F(J) = \tilde{v}(v + \frac{1}{2}) + \tilde{B}J(J+1)$$ where $\tilde{B}=h/8\pi^2c\mu\,R_e^2$ . Because the vibrational amplitude increases with the vibrational state (cf. Figure 13.1), we expect that $R_e$ ...

Table 13 .3lists some of the observed lines in the pure rotational spectrum (no vibrational transitions) of H35Cl. The differences listed in the third column clearly show that the lines are not exactly equally spaced as the rigid rotator approximation predicts. The discrepancy can be resolved by realizing that a chemic...
