what is the energy in joules of a mole of photons associated
what is the energy in joules of a mole of photons associated with visible light of wavelength 486nm.
Solution
E = hc/wavelength
h = plancks constant = 6.625*10^-34
c = speedof light = 3*10^8 m/s
wavelength = 486*10^-9 m
E = 4.089 *10^-19 J in one photon
In one mole of photons = 6*10^23 * 4.089 *10^-19 J = 245.370 KJ
