The 14 N160 molecule undergoes a transition between its rotational ground state and its
rotational first excited state. Approximating the diatomic molecule as a rigid rotor, and given
that the bond length of NO is 1.152 Angstroms, calculate the energy of the transition. As your
final answer, calculate the temperature T in Kelvin, such that Eshermal = kBT equals the
energy of the transition between NO's rotational ground state and first excited state.
