AbstractAn approximate solution of the Schrӧdinger equation for a molecular attractive potential was obtained using the parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The energy equation and the corresponding radial wave functions were calculated. The effects of the potential parameters on the energy eigenvalues were examined. The thermal properties under the molecular attractive potential were calculated and the behaviour of the thermal properties with the maximum quantum state (λ) and the temperature parameter (β) respectively, were studied. Using the molecular spectroscopic parameters, the Rydberg–Klein–Rees (RKR) of cesium dimer and lithium dimer were both obtained and compared with the experimental values. The RKR values of both cesium dimer and lithium dimer calculated aligned with the observed values. The deviation and average deviation of the RKR for each molecule were also calculated.
