Question

Photoelectron spectra were acquired from a sample of
gaseous N2 using He(I) light with energy 21.22 eV as the
ionization source. Photoelectrons were detected with
kinetic energy values 5.63 eV and also with 4.53 eV. Calculate the ionization energy for each group of electrons.
Identify the MOs that were most likely the sources of
these two groups of electrons.
