Molecules have ionization energies, just like atoms do. The ionization energy for molecular oxygen, for example, is 1314 kJ/mol.

This is the amount of energy required to remove one electron from an O2 molecule, forming an O2+ ion. What is the longest wavelength of light that could ionize an O2 molecule?

Answer:

91.1835 nm

Explanation:

Given that the ionization energy of the oxygen molecule = 1314 kJ/mol

It means that

1 mole of oxygen molecules can be ionized by the energy = 1314 kJ = 1314000 J

1 mole of molecules contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

So,

6.022 × 10²³ atoms of oxygen molecules can be ionized by the energy = 1314000 J

1 atom require \frac{1314000}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\ J of energy

Energy = 2.18\times 10^{-18}\ J

Also

E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda is the wavelength

So,

\lambda=\frac {h\times c}{E}

\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{2.18\times 10^{-18}}\ m

\lambda=91.1835\times 10^{-9}}\ m

Also,

1\ nm=10^{-9}}\ m

So, wavelength = 91.1835 nm

K stands for thousands
1 k = 1000
