There are various contributions to the Hamiltonian of a single particle. Contributions include translation, rotation, vibration, electric, and nuclear. The diatomic molecule is part of an ideal gas. Separate the Hamiltonians. Separate the interactions and particles. Under the rigid rotor approximation, rotations do not see the changing bond length. The contributions of the Hamiltonian due to rotation and vibration are independent. When vibrations are large, though, the bond length is changing. The first excited electric state would be considered. McQuarrie considers the first excited nuclear state. Thermodynamics cares about derivatives of the partition function.

Define different kinds of motion. Solve the Schrodinger equation. Evaluate as well as possible. Take limits in the rotational case. Boltzman is a system approximation. Don't need to be too occupied with the math.
Configurational Properties
A figure below is of a mixture of atoms in a solid. Consider some arrangement on a lattice of atoms and vacancies or a binary mix. In general different arrangements are associated with different energies. Consider

atoms of one kind. The term

is the configurational entropy. Construct a phase diagram. Consider an electronic or vibrational shift. Configurational entropy is most important. Below is an expression simplified with Stirling's approximation. The configurational entropy can be expressed as a function of concentration.
