Short Answer (30 points): In the space available answer 3 of the following 5 questions. Indicate the questions you want graded on the cover sheet. Use complete sentences! Correctanswers expressed in poor grammar will be docked 1 point. Use equations and diagrams wherehelpful or required. Each question is worth 10 points.SAMPLE QUESTIONS:A.) Consider a molecular orbital picture of MgH. If MgH is ionized to form MgH+ what changesdo you expect in the bond length and the vibrational frequency? Why?B.) Describe hydrogen bonding and explain why it is an important and unique interaction,contrasting it with other Van der Waals interactions. Give two examples illustrating theimportance of hydrogen bonding.Name Chem 260/261 First Exam 2/12/01 Sample 416.) (28 pts): In the space available solve 2 of the following 3 problems. Indicate the questionsyou want graded on the cover sheet. Partial credit will be given for work shown in the indicatedarea only. You must show how the correct answer was obtained or no credit will be given. Eachproblem is worth 14 points.SAMPLE PROBLEM:B.) The J = 0 to 2 rotational transition of HD is observed in the Raman spectrum at 273.93 cm-1. (i) Based on this observation what is the bond length in the HD molecule? (ii) Would you expect to observe the J = 0 to J = 2 transition of H2 above or below 273.93 cm-1 ?
