Question
The quantum yield of light-induced chemical reactions (called
photochemical reactions) measures the efficiency of the
process. The quantum yield,
d, is defined
4,
as:
number of reaction events
number of photons absorbed Suppose the quantum yield
for the reaction CH;X - CH3 + X is =0.24. A cuvette con-
taining a solution of CH3X is irradiated with 280-nm light with
a power of 885 mW for 10.0 minutes. Assuming total absorp-
tion of the light by the sample, what is the maximum amount
(in moles) of CH3X that breaks apart?
