Molecular energies can be expressed as the sum of 4 components: translational, rotational, vibrational, and electronic. Let these be represented as eTr, eRo, eVi, eEl. If the energies sum to the total energy, prove whether the total partition function for the molecule is the sum of OR the product of the 4 component partition functions:qTr, qRo, qVi, qEl.

The general form of a partition function is a sum over the states of the system,

Explanation:

qTr + qRo+ qVi +qEl= Qt

Qt= total energy

explanation:

venn diagram is pictorial representation with of circles showing the relation between two finite sets or things. the intersection part of two circles conveys the relation present in between those sets or things.

here in the venn diagram of sand and salt two circles represent sand and salt. but the area falling under the intersection of these circle represents the mixture of sand and salt.

so, in a venn diagram the mixture will be placed in a middle that is in between the intersection of two circles.
