Answer:
The wavelength of sunlight that can cause this bond breakage is 242 nm
Explanation:
The minimum energy of the sunlight that'll break Oxygen-oxygen bond must match 495 KJ/mol
But 1 mole of any molecule contains 6.02 × 10²³ molecules/mol
Each molecule of Oxygen will require (495 × 10³)/(6.02 × 10²³) = 8.22 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
E = hf
v = fλ
f = v/λ
f = frequency of the sunlight
λ = wavelength of the sunlight
v = speed of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
E = hv/λ
λ = hv/E
h = Planck's constant = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s
λ = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴)(3 × 10⁸)/(8.22 × 10⁻¹⁹)
λ = 2.42 × 10⁻⁷ m = 242 nm.
Answer: approximately 50%
Explanation:
The core difference is that heat deals with thermal energy, whereas temperature is more concerned with molecular kinetic energy. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy, whereas temperature is a property the object exhibits.
