Please show all work for full credit. 1. (6 pts) A photon has a wavelength of 325 nm. Does the photon have sufficient energy to

break a N=N bond that has a bond energy of 418 kJ/mol.

No, it is not sufficient

Please find the workings below

Explanation:

Using E = hf

Where;

E = energy of a photon (J)

h = Planck's constant (6.626 × 10^-34 J/s)

f = frequency

However, λ = v/f

f = v/λ

Where; λ = wavelength of light = 325nm = 325 × 10^-9m

v = speed of light (3 × 10^8 m/s)

Hence, E = hv/λ

E = 6.626 × 10^-34 × 3 × 10^8 ÷ 325 × 10^-9

E = 19.878 × 10^-26 ÷ 325 × 10^-9

E = 19.878/325 × 10^ (-26+9)

E = 0.061 × 10^-17

E = 6.1 × 10^-19J

Next, we work out the energy required to dissociate 1 mole of N=N. Since the bond energy is 418 kJ/mol.

E = 418 × 10³ ÷ 6.022 × 10^23

E = 69.412 × 10^(3-23)

E = 69.412 × 10^-20

E = 6.9412 × 10^-19J

6.9412 × 10^-19J is required to break one mole of N=N bond.

Based on the workings above, the photon, which has an energy of 6.1 × 10^-19J is not sufficient to break a N=N bond that has an energy of 6.9412 × 10^-19J
