Six interactive modules tell the story of front line staff and their patrons’ information needs like solving a Pinterest fail, providing research services to city officials, and helping a student with homework. The Badge is a deep dive into the Top 10 MeL eResources so you know where to go to get what you need. Learners who complete all six modules will earn their MeL Maven Badge!
The Michigan eLibrary (MeL) is a statewide service of the Library of Michigan, an agency of the Michigan Department of Education. The Library of Michigan works with the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services (MCLS) to provide MeL services. Mission Statement Administered by the Library of Michigan in partnership with Michigan's libraries of all types, the Michigan eLibrary will provide all ...
The only proper way to do it ab initio is to calculate the energy (E) for various internuclear distances (R) and then to approximate the equilibrium bond length by choosing the distance which has the lowest energy, or by fitting the E (R) points to something like a Morse potential (which is decent for short-distances), Lennard-Jones potential (which is decent for large distances), or the one ...
If you know the bond lengths of few such compounds, you can derive a very accurate linear correlation between the bond length and the frequency. So while you can't directly predict bond lengths from IR alone, you can likely develop a correlation between a particular IR frequency and bond length for a series of related compounds.
