Homework Statement
From the moment of inertia of C2H2 and C2D2, I have to calculate the C≡C and C-H (C-D) bond lengths. I am confused on how to form the 2 simultaneous equations.
Relevant Equations
rH=
rC=
I really need help with this.

You need to at least show an attempt. What are the relevant equations?
 
Thank you for your reply. This is what I got so far but I am very unsure.
IH=(mCrC^2 + mHrH^2)x 2
ID=(mCrC^2+ mDrH^2)x 2

What is the moment of inertia for a collection of point particles in general? Does this match what you have written?

Edit: my apologies. I see from the picture in OP how you have defined ##r_H## and ##r_C##. Your moment of inertia equations are correct. What is the next step?

Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
