Question:

(a) For 12C16O in the v = 0 vibrational level, the J = 0 to 1 absorption frequency is 115271.20 MHz and the J = 4 to 5 absorption frequency is 576267.92 MHz. Calculate the centrifugal distortion constant D for this molecule.
(b) For 12C16O in the v = 1 level, the J = 0 to 1 absorption is at 114221.74 MHz. Find the constant αe for this molecule.
