Chapter 5, Problem 56AP
In two-photon ionization spectroscopy, the combined energies carried by two different photons are used to remove an electron from an atom or molecule. In such an experiment, a K atom in the gas phase is to be ionized by two different light beams, one of which has a 650-nm wavelength. What is the maximum wavelength for the second beam that will cause two-photon ionization?

- The ionization energy of rubidium is 403 kJ/mol. Do x-rays with a wavelength of 85 nm have sufficient energy to ionize rubidium?arrow_forwardOzone in the stratosphere absorbs ultraviolet light of wavelengths shorter than 320 nm, thus filtering out the most energetic radiation from sunlight. During this absorption, an ozone molecule absorbs a photon, which breaks an oxygen-oxygen bond, yielding an oxygen molecule and an oxygen atom: O3(g)+hvO2(g)+O(g) (Here, hv denotes a photon.) Suppose a flask of ozone is irradiated with a pulse of UV light of wavelength 275 nm. Assuming that each photon of this pulse that is absorbed breaks up one ozone molecule, calculate the energy absorbed per mole of O2 produced, giving the answer in kJ/mol.arrow_forwardA hydrogen atom in the ground stale absorbs a photon whose wavelength is 95.0 nm.
