If the wavenumber of the J = 3 ← 2 rotational transition of 1H35Cl, which may be considered as a rigid rotator, is 63.56 cm−1 calculate the moment of inertia and the bond length of the molecule.[Note: m(1H) = 1.0078 u and m(35Cl) = 34.9688 u.]
You will perform rotational spectroscopy on the diatomic molecule 25A29B (where A and B are generic elements with an interatomic spacing that is expected to be 1.28 Å). Prior to the experiment, you want to predict what the spectrum will look like so you know what to expect and one spectral line you are particularly interested in is the transition between l =2 and the next higher state. What is the wavenumber (in cm-1) of the photon for this transition? Write your answer to two decimal places (X.XX). Answer: 5.88

Is the bond length in 1HCl the same as that in 2HCl? The wavenumbers of the J = 1 ← 0 rotational transitions for 1H35Cl and 2H35Cl are 20.8784 and 10.7840 cm–1, respectively. Accurate atomic masses are 1.007 825mu and 2.0140mu for 1H and 2H, respectively. The mass of 35Cl is 34.968 85mu. Based on this information alone, can you conclude that the bond lengths are the same or different in the two molecules?
