N(2) undergoes photochemical dissociatio...

`N_(2)` undergoes photochemical dissociation into one normal `N-`atom and one `N-`atom having `0.1eV`more energy than normal `N-`atom. The dissociation of `N_(2)` into two normal atom of `N` requires `289.5 KJ//mol` energy. The maximum wavelength effective for photochemical dissociation of `N_(2)` in `nm` is `P nm` (`1 eV = 96.5` KJ/mol). Find the value of `(P)/(100)`.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the dissociation energy from kJ/mol to eV The dissociation energy for \( N_2 \) is given as \( 289.5 \, \text{kJ/mol} \). We need to convert this energy into electron volts (eV) using the conversion factor \( 1 \, \text{eV} = 96.5 \, \text{kJ/mol} \). \[ \text{Energy in eV} = \frac{289.5 \, \text{kJ/mol}}{96.5 \, \text{kJ/mol/eV}} = 3.0 \, \text{eV} \] ### Step 2: Account for the additional energy of the excited atom The problem states that one of the nitrogen atoms has an additional \( 0.1 \, \text{eV} \) of energy. Therefore, the total energy required for the dissociation of \( N_2 \) into two nitrogen atoms (one in the ground state and one in the excited state) is: \[ \text{Total energy} = 3.0 \, \text{eV} + 0.1 \, \text{eV} = 3.1 \, \text{eV} \] ### Step 3: Use the energy-wavelength relationship The energy of a photon is related to its wavelength by the equation: \[ E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \] Where: - \( E \) is the energy in eV, - \( h \) is Planck's constant (\( 4.1357 \times 10^{-15} \, \text{eV s} \)), - \( c \) is the speed of light (\( 3 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s} \)), - \( \lambda \) is the wavelength in meters. Rearranging this equation to solve for \( \lambda \): \[ \lambda = \frac{hc}{E} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the wavelength in nanometers Substituting the values into the equation, we first convert \( hc \) into eV·nm for convenience. The value of \( hc \) in eV·nm is approximately \( 1240 \, \text{eV·nm} \). Now substituting \( E = 3.1 \, \text{eV} \): \[ \lambda = \frac{1240 \, \text{eV·nm}}{3.1 \, \text{eV}} \approx 400 \, \text{nm} \] ### Step 5: Find the value of \( P/100 \) According to the problem, \( P \) is the wavelength in nanometers, which we found to be \( 400 \, \text{nm} \). Thus: \[ \frac{P}{100} = \frac{400}{100} = 4 \] ### Final Answer The value of \( \frac{P}{100} \) is \( 4 \). ---
