Question : 90
Total: 160
The distance between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a carbon monoxide molecule is
1.1
Å
. Given, mass of carbon atom is 12 a.m.u and mass of oxygen atom is 16 a.m.u. Calculate the position of the centre of mass of the carbon monoxide molecule.
6.3

Solution:
Given that, mass of oxygen,
m
0
=
16
amu
Mass of carbon,
m
c
=
12
amu
Distance between them,
r
=
11
Å
Let
x
be the distance of centre of mass from carbon atom
By using expression of centre of mass for two particle system,
