Answer:

The wavelength of light is 68 nm.

Explanation:

Given data:

Binding energy of electron = 176 × 10³ Kj/ mol or   (1.76× 10⁶ j/mol)

Wavelength of light require to remove the  electron = ?

Solution:

E = hc / λ

h = planck constant (6.63×10⁻³⁴ J/s)

c = speed of light = (3×10⁸ m/s)

The energy require per electron is

1.76 × 10⁶ j / 6.02× 10²³ = 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

Now we will put the values in formula,

E = hc / λ

λ =  hc / E

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ m².kg.s⁻¹ . 3×10⁸ m/s / 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

λ = 19.89×10⁻²⁶ m /2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸   (m².kg.s⁻² = J)

λ = 6.8 ×10⁻⁸ m

λ = 6.8 ×10⁻⁸ × 10⁹

λ = 68 nm

Calculate the amount of solute needed for 1000 ml of 15% sodium thiosulfate
maksim [4K]
15% =  15 grams of solute in 100 mL solution

15 g --------------- 100 mL
?? ------------------ 1000 mL

1000 x 15 / 100 = 

15000 / 100 => 150 g of solute

hope this helps!
