Question

7. (6 points) a. A flask containing gaseous N2 is irradiated with 25-nm light. Using the following information, indicate what species can form in this flask during irradiation. ΔΗ-941 kJ/mol N2lg)2N(g) N2(g)N2(g) AH- 1501 kJ/mol Ng)N (g) eAH- 1402 k/mol b. What range of wavelengths will produce atomic nitrogen in the flask but will not produce any ions? c. Explain why the first ionization energy of N2 (1501 kJ/mol) is greater than the first ionization energy of atomic nitrogen (1402 kJ/mol)
