QUANTUM CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 31.4 : In a rigid rotor model in quantum chemistry, the moment of inertia I is given by an Equation E as I = Ma x La x La + Mc x Lc x Lc = m x L x L, where m = (Ma x Mc) / (Ma + Mc) and L = La + Lc, m is the reduced mass, Ma is the mass of a, Mc is the mass of c, La is the radius of a from point O, Lc is the radius of c from point O. Prove by simplest method that Equation E is wrong.

QUANTUM CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 31.4 : Let Ma = 0 and Mc = 1 as assumption. Substitute them into Equation E as I = Ma x La x La + Mc x Lc x Lc = 0 + Lc x Lc = Lc x Lc. However, m = (0 x 1) / (0 + 1) = 0, then I = Lc x Lc, which is not equal to 0 but I = m x L x L = 0 x L x L = 0. Equation E is proven wrong.
