It takes 348 kJ/mol to break a carbon-carbon single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon. Round your answer to correct number of significant digits

Answer: 344 nm

Explanation:

$E=\frac{Nhc}{\lambda}$

E= energy = 348kJ= 348000 J (1kJ=1000J)

N = avogadro's number = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js
$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8ms^{-1}$

$348000=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{348000}$

$\lambda=3.44\times 10^{-7}m=344nm$ $1nm=10^{-9}m$

Thus the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 344 nm

What is the number of moles of potassium chloride present in 148 g of kcl?

OLga [1]

The number of moles of one substance given the amount in mass can be calculated by the use of the molar mass. This is the mass of a compound per 1 mol of the said substance. For, KCl the molar mass is 74.55 g/ mol

148 g / 74.55 g/mol = 2 mol KCl

Hope this answers the question. have a nice day.
