The HF molecule has a harmonic vibrational frequency of 1.241 x 1014 Hz.

a. Determine its force constant using the reduced mass of HF.

b. Assume that the F atom doesn̢۪t move and that the vibration is due solely to the motion of the H atom. Using the mass of the H atom and the force constant just calculated, what is the expected frequency of the atom? Comment on the difference.
