Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the lowest possible frequency of light that can ionize a potassium atom given its ionization energy, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Ionization Energy from Kilocalories to Joules The ionization energy (IE) of potassium is given as 100 kilocalories per mole. We need to convert this to joules. \[ \text{Ionization Energy (IE)} = 100 \, \text{kcal/mol} \times 4184 \, \text{J/kcal} \] ...
