a) The J = 0 to J =1 rotational transition of the CO molecule occurs at a frequency of 1.15×1011 Hz. Use this information to calculate the moment of inertia of the molecule about its center of mass.

b) The CO molecule shows a strong absorption line at the frequency 6.42×1013 Hz due to transition from thev= 0 to the v = 1 vibrational levels. Calculate the effective force constant for this molecule.

c) Why does CO molecule have pure rotational transitions while O2 doesn’t?

d) Obviously, CO does rotation and vibration simultaneously. What is the actual frequency for this rotational-vibrational transition of a) and b)? show your work.
