How many rotational degrees of freedom does a rigid diatomic molecule have?
- A 0
- B 1
- C 2
- D 3
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 2
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A rigid diatomic molecule can store energy only by two possible ways of rotation, so it has only 2 rotational degrees of freedom.
