This is all the information given to solve the questions
1)Calculate the translational, vibrational (calculate excluding and including the zero-point energy term), rotational, and electronic contributions to the molecular partition function for gaseous ammonia at 25 C and 1 bar (such that the volume is that appropriate for 1 mole of molecules). The mass is 17.024 amu. The rotational constants are 9.44,9.44, and 6.2 cm1. The vibrational constants (and degeneracies) are 3336(1),932(1),3443(2), and 1616(2) cm1. The ground electronic state has a degeneracy of 1(1A1). Take the zero of energy to be that of the ground state, i.e., not the separated atoms.
2) Calculate the translational, rotational, vibrational (calculate excluding and including the zero-point energy term), and electronic (calculate taking the zero of energy to be that of the ground state molecule and that of the separated atoms) contributions to the internal energy (U) for gaseous ammonia at 25 C and 1 bar (such that the volume is that appropriate for 1 mole of molecules). Molecular constants can be found in problem 1. The atomization energy is D0=1158 kJ/mol.
3) Calculate the translational, rotational, vibrational (calculate excluding and including the zero-point energy term), and electronic (calculate taking the zero of energy to be that of the ground state molecule and that of the separated atoms where D0=1158 kJ/mol) contributions to the constant volume heat capacity (CV) for gaseous ammonia at 25 C and 1 bar (such that the volume is that appropriate for 1 mole of molecules). Compare your answer with the experimental value of 26.75 J/K mol.
