Chapter 2, Problem 76E

A green leaf has a surface area of 2.50 cm2. If solar radiation is 1000 W/m2, how many photons strike the leaf every second? Assume three significant figures and an average wavelength of 504 nm for solar radiation.

Please correct answer and don't used hand raiting
Differentiate between single links and multicenter links.
I need help on my practice final, if you could explain how to solve this that would be extremely helpful for my final thursday. Please dumb it down chemistry is not my strong suit. If you could offer strategies as well to make my life easier that would be beneficial
