Question

4. Zero point energy of diatomic SHO of
vibrational frequency v is:
(A) hv
(B)
hv
2
(C)
1/3xhv

1/4×hv
(D)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Zero point energy of diatomic SHO of vibrational frequency v is (D)1/4hv

Explanation:

zero-point energy, vibrational energy that molecules retain even at the absolute zero of temperature. Zero-point energy (ZPE) is the lowest possible energy that a quantum mechanical system may have. Unlike in classical mechanics, quantum systems constantly fluctuate in their lowest energy state as described by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
