vibration spectroscopy. general Q

fogy · 2012-01-04 11:39:14

Chemistry: In vibrational spectroscopy, to find the Vmax you use the equation Vmax= 1/2(Xe-1) I have an example of this done out from lectures. Vmax = 1/2(0.0179-1) = 26 On looking over this and putting it into my calculator the answer that comes is not 26, is there something wrong im doing here. i know you have round down…

I have an example of this done out from lectures. Vmax = 1/2(0.0179-1) = 26

On looking over this and putting it into my calculator the answer that comes is not 26, is there something wrong im doing here. i know you have round down to the nearest interger here too.

Main purpose is to find the bond dissociation energy : Vmax- Vo

this is why 26 seems right
