Problem

A simplified absorption spectrum of a diatomic gas shows a single, sharp peak at 2.50×10−3 m2.50\times10^{-3}\,\text{m} (2.50 mm) and no other significant features across the recorded range. Identify the molecular energy transition (rotational, vibrational, or electronic) responsible for this peak.
