The distance between the centres of carbon and oxyen atoms in the carbonmonoxid gas molecule is `1.13Å`. Locate the centre of amss of the gas molecule relative to the carbon atom.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Centre of mass
`x_(CM) =(m_(1)x_(1)+m_(2)x_(2))/(m_(1)+m_(2))`
`=(13xx0+16xx1.13)/(12+16)`
`=0.6457Å`
