Gas Phase Heat Capacity (Shomate Equation)

Cp° = A + B*t + C*t2 + D*t3 + E/t2
H° − H°298.15= A*t + B*t2/2 + C*t3/3 + D*t4/4 − E/t + F − H
S° = A*ln(t) + B*t + C*t2/2 + D*t3/3 − E/(2*t2) + G
    Cp = heat capacity (J/mol*K)
    H° = standard enthalpy (kJ/mol)
    S° = standard entropy (J/mol*K)
    t = temperature (K) / 1000.

52Calculated ΔG(1/2) value of the outer minimum of the double-minimum state Kolos and Wolniewicz, 1969; see H2. According to Kolos and Wolniewicz, 1969 the lowest level of the outer minimum is 9190.1 cm-1 above B 1Σu+(v=0), but the v=0...5 levels have not yet been observed. The v=6 level lies just below the potential maximum.
53B6 = 3.5. r6 =2.2. Vibrational numbering of Kolos and Wolniewicz, 1969. The D6 value is large and negative. Higher vibrational levels lie above the potential maximum and have larger Bv values (e.g. B12 = 5.688) corresponding to the fact that for these levels the vibrational motion covers both minima of the E,F state. A few rotational levels of v=4 have been observed.

The last level lies 50 cm-1 above the dissociation limit confirming the theoretical prediction Kolos and Wolniewicz, 1965 of a maximum in the potential function.

66ωeze = -0.02286; the zero-point energy (Y00 = 4.13 included) is 1546.49 cm-1. Data from the Raman measurements of Stoicheff, 1957 and the field-induced spectrum of Brannon, Church, et al., 1968 have been combined with the somewhat less accurate VUV results in the least-squares solution (10-level fit) for the vibrational and rotational constants Bredohl and Herzberg, 1973. All vibrational levels have been observed, the last one, v=21, being only 2.1 cm-1 below the dissociation limit Bredohl and Herzberg, 1973. Theoretical values for all bound and quasi-bound levels are given by LeRoy, 1971; see also Kolos and Wolniewicz, 1975. For a discussion of the small differences observed-calculated, see Bunker, 1972, Bredohl and Herzberg, 1973, Dabrowski and Herzberg, 1976.

74See the remarks in H2 52 concerning the corresponding series of H2. Note, however, that an accurate representation using Fano's quantum defect theory has not yet been attempted for D2.
75This series of levels is obtained Takezawa and Tanaka, 1975 from a Rydberg series of Q(1) lines whose limit is at 124715.2 cm-1. A similar series of Q(2) lines with a limit at 124654 cm-1 converges to the N=2 level of D2+; also observed for v=1 and 2. These series, unlike J=1 of npσ, 1Σu+ and npπ, 1Πu+, are essentially unperturbed.
