The dissociation energy of the C- Cl bond in CF₃Cl is 339 kJ/mol. The maximum wavelength of light that has enough energy per photon to dissociate the C- Cl bond is _ nm.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The energy of a photon is given by E = hc/λ. Rearranging for λ gives λ = hc/E. Using h = 6.626 × 10^-34 J·s, c = 3.00 × 10^8 m/s, and E = 339 kJ/mol (converted to J/photon), the maximum wavelength is approximately 353 nm.
