Question

To find the energy levels of a diatomic molecule, one can solve this equation for the quantum harmonic oscillator. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name this partial differential equation whose time-independent form is written as “H-psi equals E-psi.”
ANSWER: Schrödinger equation
[10h] This model modifies the harmonic oscillator model by capping energy levels at the bond dissociation energy as internuclear separation approaches infinity.
ANSWER: Morse potential
[10m] The Morse potential is used to explain the dynamics of these phenomena. These phenomena are described as Raman active if they change the polarizability of a molecule.
ANSWER: molecular vibrations [accept vibrational modes or vibrational transitions; accept descriptions indicating bonds vibrating; anti-prompt on wagging or rocking or bending or twisting or stretching]
