Homework Statement
It takes 208.4 kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electrons from an atom on the surface of rubidium metal.
What is the maximum wavelength of light capable of doing this?
Homework Equations
Ephotons=hc/lambda
The Attempt at a Solution
I don't know the energy of the photon. I know h=6.626e-34, c=2.9979e8
I'm trying to find lambda but w/o the Ephoton I don't how to solve the equation.I found the energy to remove a single electron which is 3.461e-19.
