We've spent quite a bit of time thinking about the interactions between atoms or molecules, one of which is called London dispersion forces. The stable interactions between two atoms we briefly discussed, in this case a covalent bond. We will explore more about this type of interaction in a minute. But let's say for now that it takes 348 kJ/mol to break 1 mole of C-C bonds (that is, 6.022 * 1023 C-C bonds). What would be the minimum frequency of a photon that could break a single (1) C-C bond? What region of the EM spectrum would this light be in?
