Chapter 7, Problem 7F.7BE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy required to excite an SF6 molecule from a state with l=2 to a state with l=3 has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Rotational energy is encountered because the electrons orbit around the nucleus and also spin around its own axis.  There is no zero-point energy in case of a rotating particle.  Rotation energy is always quantized.
