The reduced masses are pre-calculated for this question and included in a list. It would be more elegant to program Numbas to permute atoms together to generate diatomic molecules while constraining the permutations to those which are chemically/physically reasonable, so as to allow calculation of each reduced mass directly from the atomic masses- but organising this with high computational efficiency might be a significant programing task (add to "to do" list).

Question requires students to themselves calculate how many electrons are in the conjugated system for the molecules included in this question. As is standard for applications of the "particle in a box" model, the embedded assumption is that one electron is donated to the pi-system by each carbon within the conjugated chain. Students instructed to assume that there are 22 conjugated electrons in Beta-carotene.
