An X-ray photon of wavelength 0.989 nm strikes a surface. The emitted electron has a kinetic energy of 969 eV. What is the binding energy of the electron in kJ/mol? Hint The kinetic energy of the electron is equal to the energy of the photon (hv) minus the binding energy of the electron (Φ):
KE = hv — Φ.
