The course I'm taking identifies "Bloch form" as Ψ(x) = u(x) eikx.
I'm not sure I understand your question. My first answer I believe fills the bill, but the second one has u(x) in imaginary form and I'm not sure about it.

Hi,
Where would I find data for rotational/vibrational temperatures for a particular molecule (ethane)? I tried googling but had no luck. Also can you compute the moments of inerta for a particular (simple) molecule?
Wow. Thanks a pile dude(?). What an embarassing oversite on my part! (Homer Simpson Duh!) All this time, I'm in my 50's, and I'm thinking liter is, or absentmindedly thinking it is, the SI unit for volume. It's all about the units, man.
I've also found, thanks to Excel, that the descrepancy involes either a factor of .01 inside the power expression
(2ΠmkT/h2)3/2 or .001 times the expression [(2ΠmkT/h2)3/2*Ve5/2/Na] but I still don't know what it could be.
My calculated value is off by 30% which is huge. I rechecked the constants I used and the units :
h = 6.63E-34 m2kg/s
kB = 1.38E-23 JK-1
NA = 6.02E+23
T = 298.15 K
V = 24.79 L
I really am stumped. I'm using Excel to do the calculation and I've checked it several times and...
