    A photon having a wavelength of \[845\text{ }\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,,\] causes the ionization of N atom. What is the ionization energy of N?

    A) \[1.4\,kJ\]          

    B)        \[1.4\,\times {{10}^{4}}\,kJ\]

    C) \[1.4\,\times {{10}^{2}}\,kJ\]     

    D)        \[1.4\,\times {{10}^{3}}\,kJ\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Key Idea: The ionization energy is the amount of energy required to take out most loosely bonded electron from isolated gaseous atom \[\therefore \]Ionization energy of nitrogen = energy of photon \[=Nh\frac{c}{\lambda }\]                 Where                  \[N=6.02\times {{10}^{23}}\]                                                 \[c=3\times {{10}^{8}}\]                                 \[\lambda =854\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,=854\times {{10}^{-10}}M\]                                 \[=\frac{6.02\times {{10}^{23}}\times 6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}{854\times {{10}^{-10}}}\]                                 \[=1.4\times {{10}^{6}}\,J\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[=1.4\times {{10}^{3}}\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]
