The equations that connect the wavenumbers of rotational transitions with rotational and centrifugal distortion constants can be arranged as:

v(J+1 <- J) /{2(J+1)}=B-2DJ(J+1)2

which is the equation of a straight line when the left-hand side is plotted against (J+1)2. The following wavenumbers of transitions (in cm-1) were observed for 16C18O:

J 0 1 2 3 4
3.845033 7.689919 11.534510 15.378662 19.22223

Determine B, DJ, and the equilibirum bond length of CO.
