absorption peak for CO is at ~2142 cm-1...therefore the force constant would be

k=4*pi2*c2*v2*(m1*m2/(m1+m2))

where c is the speed of light in cm/s (2.99792458 x 1010 cm/s)

v is the vibrational frequency in cm-1 (2142 cm-1) and m1 and m2 are the masses of the atoms (m1=0.0120 kg/mol/6.0221415 x1023 1/mol, m2=0.01601 kg/mol/6.0221415 x1023 1/mol)

entering all of this yields k~1854 N/m

Force constant in IR spectroscopy?

The force constant is a measure of the strength of a chemical bond. In IR spectroscopy, it affects the vibrational frequency of a molecule, which determines the position of peaks in the IR spectrum. Higher force constants result in higher vibrational frequencies and shifts IR peaks to higher wavenumbers.


Is the molecule co polar or nonpolar?

The molecule is nonpolar.


How does length of spring coil affect the force constant?

The force constant is unaffected; It is a constant.


How are constant force is related to mass and acceleration?

Force = (mass) times (acceleration) Constant force produces constant acceleration.


What is the major attractive force in CO?

The major attractive force in CO is the dipole-dipole interaction between the partial positive charge on the carbon atom and the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom. This results in a stronger intermolecular force compared to London dispersion forces, leading to a higher boiling point for CO.


What will be the definition of co-linear force and coplanar force?

The difference is that one is co-linear force is one dimensional and co-planar force is 2-dimensional. Co-linear force is the force which is acting along a single line, whereas co-planar force is the force which is acting along a single plane.


What is the strongest intermolecular force found in carbon monoxide CO?

The strongest intermolecular force present in carbon monoxide (CO) is dipole-dipole interactions. CO is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen, resulting in a permanent dipole. While London dispersion forces are also present, dipole-dipole interactions dominate because of the molecule's polarity. Additionally, CO can form hydrogen bonds when interacting with molecules that have hydrogen bonded to highly electronegative atoms, but this is less common.


What is the expression for force constant?

The expression for the force constant (k) in Hooke's Law is given by the equation F = kx, where F is the force applied, k is the force constant, and x is the displacement from equilibrium. The force constant is a measure of the stiffness of a spring or a bond.


What is the size of CO molecule?

The size of a CO (carbon monoxide) molecule is approximately 0.13 nanometers in diameter.


Is CO a polar molecule?

Yes.


If the force is constant what else is constant?

If the net force on an object is constant, its acceleration will also be constant, as given by Newton's second law of motion.


What is the SI unit of force constant?

I am not sure what you mean with "force constant". The SI unit of force is the newton.
