Calculate the C=O bond length of the molecule (given masses: m(12C) = 12 amu, m(16O) = 15.9949 amu).Ans = ______ Angstroms b.) Suppose that the wavenumber of the J = 1 ← 0 rotational transition of 1H79Br considered as a rigid rotor was measured to be 17.89 cm-1, what is the bond length? Ans = ____  Angstroms When the moment of interia is 3.132x10^-47 kg*m^2(Given the isotopic masses:(m(79Br) = 78.9183 amu, m(81Br) = 80.9163 amu)
