Chapter 21, Problem 25QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the statement “the C-Cl bond in a CFC molecule is preferentially broken by solar radiation at 250 nm” is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

In a chemical reaction, bonds are formed and broken, and the energythat is required to break a bond in a chemical reaction is known as bond enthalpy.

The frequency of photons is given by the expression, which is as follows:

(ν)=speed of waveWavelength.

Here, ν is the frequency.

The energy of a photon is as follows:

E = hν.

Here, h is the Planck’s constant and ν is the frequency.
