Problem:

What wavelength photon would be required to ionize a hydrogen atom in the ground state and give the ejected electron a kinetic energy of 19.1 eV ?

Answer--> λ =______nm

[Note: I got 3.8x10^-8. I got it wrong twice]

My steps:

(32.7 eV)(1.6x10^19)= 52.32x10^-19

Next I did this:

((6.626x10^-34)(3x10^8m/s))/(52.32x10^-19)=3.8x10^-8

My answer--> 3.8⋅10^−8
