Recall from Section 14.3 that the average kinetic energy of an atom in a monatomic ideal gas is given by KE=(3/2)kT, where k
= 1.38 x 10-23 J/K and T is the Kelvin temperature of the gas. Determine the de Broglie wavelength of a helium atom
(mass = 6.65 x 10-27 kg) that has the average kinetic energy at room temperature (292 K).

In this problem, you will calculate the center of mass of two molecules. For each molecule, draw a picture. Clearly
indicate the origin of your coordinate system, the locations of the atoms, and the location of the center of mass. Consult
a periodic table to find the masses of the atoms.
(a) Electron diffraction experiments reveal that the distance between the centers of the carbon (C) and oxygen (O)
atoms in a carbon monoxide molecule is about 1.100 x 10-10
m. Where is the center of mass of a CO molecule?
(b) In an ammonia molecule (NH3), the atoms are arranged in a pyramid.* The three hydrogen atoms (H) form
an equilateral triangle at the base of a pyramid. The distance between the centers of the hydrogen atoms is
1.628 x 10-10 m; thus, the center of the triangle is 9.399 x 10-"m from each hydrogen atom. The nitrogen atom
(N) sits at the apex of the pyramid. The distance between the center of the nitrogen atom and any hydrogen atom
is 1.014 x 10-10 m. Where is the center of mass of…
Chemists use infrared absorption spectra to identify chemicals in a sample. In one sample, a chemist finds that light of wavelength 5.8 mm is absorbed when a molecule makes a transition from its ground harmonic oscillator level to its first excited level.
