Question

One mole of photons is known as one Einstein of radiation. According to Stark-Einstein law of photochemical equivalence, one mole of reactant absorbs one Einstien of energy. For a photochemical reaction, a term called quantum yield is defined as:
Quantum yield (ϕ)=No.ofmolesofreactantconvertedNo.ofEinsteinabsorbed
The correct statement(s) is/are:


A
for a chain reaction ϕgas>>ϕsolution

Solution

The correct options are
A for a chain reaction ϕgas>>ϕsolution
B in a photochemical chain reaction ϕ>>1
Quantum Yield=Number of moles of reactant convertedNumber of einstein absorbed
An einstein of radiation = one mole of photons
For a chain reaction, ϕgas>>ϕsolution
and ln photochemical chain reaction ϕ>>1
