Abstract
The infrared absorption spectra of HCl and DCl in dilute CCl4 have been recorded over a range of temperatures. The band shapes have been analysed using the method of moments, allowing both the rms torque and rms force acting on the solute to be determined as functions of temperature. It is shown that rotation-translation coupling makes a significant contribution to the dynamics of these polar molecules in solution.
