Answer

(a) $79.8\,kJ/mol$ (b) $239\,kJ/mol$ (c) $798\,kJ/mol$

Work Step by Step

Recall: Energy of one photon= $\frac{hc}{\lambda}$ Energy of one mole of photons= $\frac{hc}{\lambda}\times6.022\times10^{23}/mol$ (a) $E=\frac{(6.626\times10^{-34}\,J\cdot s)(3.00\times10^{8}\,m/s)}{1500\times10^{-9}\,m}\times6.022\times10^{23}/mol$ $=79.8\times10^{3}\,J/mol=79.8\,kJ/mol$ (b) $E=\frac{(6.626\times10^{-34}\,J\cdot s)(3.00\times10^{8}\,m/s)}{500\times10^{-9}\,m}\times6.022\times10^{23}/mol$ $=239\times10^{3}\,J/mol=239\,kJ/mol$ (c) $E=\frac{(6.626\times10^{-34}\,J\cdot s)(3.00\times10^{8}\,m/s)}{1500\times10^{-9}\,m}\times6.022\times10^{23}$ $=798\times10^{3}\,J/mol=798\,kJ/mol$
