Question: The 1 H 35 Cl molecule can be described by a Morse potential with D e = 7.41 10 -19 J. The force constant

The 1H35Cl molecule can be described by a Morse potential with De = 7.41 × 10-19 J. The force constant k for this molecule is 516 N m−1 and v = 8.97 × 1013 s−1.

a. Calculate the lowest four energy levels for a Morse potential.

b. Calculate the fundamental frequency ν0 corresponding to the transition n = 0 → n = 1 and the frequencies of the first three overtone vibrations. How large would the relative error be if you assume that the first three overtone frequencies are 2ν0, 3ν0, and 4ν0?
