Popis: | In this study, we have investigated the statistical mechanical properties of the Varshni potential model for some diatomic molecular hydrides via the Euler–Maclaurin formula. This was done using the approximate analytical energy eigenvalues, which were obtained by solving the radial Schrödinger equation with the Greene–Aldrich approximation and suitable coordinate transformation schemes. The effect of high temperatures and upper bound vibration quantum number on the vibrational partition function and other thermodynamic functions of the selected diatomic molecular hydrides were studied. We also show that these effects on the thermodynamic functions considered were similar for all the diatomic molecular hydrides selected. |
