lab marking
It would be good if you round off reported values to correct significant figures and report values of wavenumber in your answers as well. Please pay a bit more attention to overall formatting. overall a decent attempt. Also, you have uploaded an incorrect file for N2F2. If you have any specific questions, do email Prof. Hunt

IR questions
How many vibrations are expected from the 3N-6 rule?
3N-6 -> (3*4)-6 = 6 vibrations
Why are there only 4 peaks in the IR spectrum?
Even though there being 6 vibrational modes only some of these are IR active such as symmetric vibrations because cis-N2F2 is small and highly symmetrical some of the movements have no or very little change in dipole moment, and do not appear. they might also just be too small
Which vibration is the asymmetric N-F stretch?
Vibration 3
What is the nature of the highest energy vibration? N=N stretch, they move together and then pull apart
MO and Charges
the F - N bonds are showing because they are long and weak and as a result the software doesnt visualise them
the core orbital is n= 1, s orbital
charge range
-0.197 to 0.197
