The quantum yield of light-induced chemical reactions(called photochemical reactions) measures the efficiencyof the process. The quantum yield, Φ, is defined as:Φ = number of reaction eventsnumber of photons absorbed. Suppose the quantumyield for the reaction CH3X S CH3 + X is Φ = 0.24.A cuvette containing a solution of CH3X is irradiated with280-nm light with a power of 885 mW for 10 minutes.Assuming total absorption of the light by the sample, what isthe maximum amount (in moles) of CH3X that breaks apart?
