Chapter 16, Problem 16.4QAP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The absorption frequency, wavelength and wave number of the fundamental absorption of the $\text{NO}$ bond should be determined and the explanation of the comparison of the calculated value with the experimental value found for $\text{NO}$ and $\text{NO}$ dimers should be determined.

Concept introduction:

An absorption band consists of an energy range for the various wavelengths in an electromagnetic spectrum.

The wave number may be defined as the wavelength per unit distance. The units of wave number are ${\text{cm}}^{-1}$.
