[Schrödinger]

@curiouscat : Yes, I'm pretty sure the correlation's at fault. Since my lecturer said so without giving the reason, I wanted to be able to understand it in an easier way. He did say statistical mechanics needs to be applied. But since he didn't teach us that part, I tried to make the best out of it with my pre-existing knowledge.

The main reason I got hooked to this explanation is because he specifically said "a bond has 2 vibrational degrees of freedom"
