An important parameter of a photochemical reaction is the quantum effeiciency or quantum yield `(phi)` which is defined as
`phi=("moles of the substance reaction")/("moles of photons absorbed")`
Absorption of UV radiation decompose acetone according to the reaction
`(CH_(3))_(2)COoverset(hv)(rarr)C_(2)H_(6)+CO`
If quantum yield in `0.8` then rate of formation of `C_(2)H_(6)(mol//s)` is :

A

`2xx10^(-8)`

B

`1.6xx10^(-9)`

C

`16xx10^(-9)`

An important parameter of a photochemical reaction is the quantum effeiciency or quantum yield (phi) which is defined as phi=("moles of the substance reaction")/("moles of photons absorbed") Absorption of UV radiation decompose acetone according to the reaction (CH_(3))_(2)COoverset(hv)(rarr)C_(2)H_(6)+CO The quantum yield of a reaction at lambda=330nm is 0.4 . A sample of acetone absorbs monochromatic radiation at lambda330mn at the rate of 7.2xx10^(-3)Js^(-1) (given : N_(A)=6xx10^(23), h=6.6xx10^(-34) in S.I unit). The rate of formation of CO(mol//s) is :
